I am trying to decipher the wheel and tire codes on my build sheet and have not found the exact code meanings. Can someone help?
For 1972
Line #4 under Wheels
Road: 59
Color: TX8
Spare: 55
Wheel cover: 24
Line#12 under Whl/Cov
Road Wheels 23 (not 24)?
Where on the build sheet does is say tire size?
Does wheel code indicate wheel size (14"X?) ? If what was it otherwise a standard wheel size for E-Bodies?
Thanks
:wrenching:

@6bblgt (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/6bblgt_211) is your best source for deciphering these wheel codes/colors. The 2 digit number is usually either the last two digits of the assembly line wheel part# OR the catalog wheel part#. Hopefully he'll chime in soon. :bigthumb:
tires are on line #2 under "T" :takealook:
For 1972
Line #4 under Wheels
Road: 59 = #3580059 - 14x5.5" ROAD wheel
Color: TX8 = spare painted "BLACK"
Spare: 55 = 14x5.5" steel wheel
Wheel cover: 24 = #2944424 trim ring
Line#12 under Whl/Cov
Road Wheels 23 (not 24)? W23 = "chrome-style ROAD wheels"
@6bblgt (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/6bblgt_211) thank you Sir! :twothumbsup:
NOW I see the tire code :) T86 so F70-14. My spare is indeed a F70-14
Appreciate the help! :cheers:
