Do police wheels have 4 slots or 6?

[thood1954]

I've seen police wheels on CL advertised, but they only have 4 slots(openings) Then I've seen some that Summit sells that have 6. Then again I saw some on ebay with 4 openings described as hemi wheels.

I'm going to be learning some good stuff here.

Looks like 6.

What wheel are we referring to? The 69 15X6 "H" stock steel wheel, or the 77 and later rally style that would not have been used a Hemi car.

Mine on the wagon have 6 slots. The 5 slots I believe a GM units.

Correct- The Mopar "cop wheels" had 6 slots and debuted in 1978. All C body pursuit wheels were regular "steelies" with 4 slots.

Here's the GM Rallye wheel with 5 slots.

Cop wheels look good on Formals too...

I think so....gives it a rugged look. Some purists would argue " formals" aren't supposed to be rugged, they're formal.

Nice look Bob

They look like plain old steel wheels that are way over priced.....

 

[polara71]

Yes they do. I am no wheel expert but they appear to be late 70s early 80s rear wheel drive steelies, nothing more. But these are sought after by some because they are 15 X 7

Yep.......station wagon wheels.

 

[polara71]

They are JJ wheels..... good point Bob

I'm going to start selling all my "real junk" on EBay and just call everything "Hemi" with outrageous prices and buy another C-Body or a Forward Look if sales really take off. LOL!
