'65 has a round center cap with red center. '67 is a star shape with blue center.

'65 has chrome rim with no trim ring, '67 has painted rim and uses a trim ring.

1. I've owned a 67 styled steel wheel however I have not owned a 65
2. My 67 ssw was bent therefore did not use a trim ring.

The trim ring is correct, the other answer is under the center cap. kennyg

OK mgreene you go. You did give me two differences. The other one I was looking for is a notch in the center of the wheel. I guess it's a reference mark for the '67 center cap. kennyg

1970 Boss 302s came from the factory with Goodyear Polyglas tires. They also had a collapsible spare as standard equipment. Who was the tire manufacturer for the spare?

I have a collapsible spare for my '70 Mach 1, it's at the shop in storage so I can't come up with an answer without Googling it, but that's cheating. The rim is painted orange, but not grabber orange. kennyg

Nope. But that's what you'd think.

You're up...
