15x7's, 14x6's
Are 14x6's factory for Sandman's or are they 15x7's? I'd like to know what is correct, suitable or appropriate.
Thanks.
14 X 6 are standard factory GTS rims for HQ - HZ. Even the A9X Torana had 14X6 but the off set was different and the outer ring was the same as HK-HG GTS from memory.

7/76 HX Monaro 4dr 308 4sp... Absinth Yellow and rusty as hell.. SOLD
3/77 HX Sandman Panelvan ... Absinth Yellow and rusty as hell .. SOLD
HZ tyre placard nominated rim size 6.00JJ, tyre size Designation ER70H14 which agrees with Absinth....
We need two hubcaps, we got 4 with the Red van, but the yellow van only had the
GTS rims but the caps were missing...we got two with 2 more rims we bought from a young bloke $50 each, who works with R's brother at the Ford dealership, where we have been getting all the mechanical work done.....and I am bidding on one on ebay for $15 only after one more....
The manager of the Holden museum Euchuca, takes them all off the cars at the museum and puts them away, he told me they were one of the most stolen things in the museum...sadly even people who go to car museums are thieves.....:( we have trims for one Van, but they are rusted and we plan to get them all re chromed along with the bumpers......
Why not put the anti-theft plates behind the lugs (Also on Ebay)
BO6 = Rarer then a Sandman
As stated above 14 x 6 are standard but 15 x 7 do look good - fill out the guards and give you more tyre options. That said both 14" and 15" tyres are getting harder to get these days - esp. if you are after something a bit wider than standard - Bridgestone/Firestone options have been cut right back since moving all manufacturing offshore.
