    I have a front wheel disc conversion on my 69. My stock 14" steelies fit so I'm assuming some 14" 1970 GS steelies will also fit too? Thanks

    Yes and no. '70 gs cars came standard with drum brakes. U need to be sure that rims are "JJ" (disk brake) code.

    Thanks Gerry,
    I found a set of JJ 14x6 rally wheels as well. Think I'll go with them instead of the GS steel wheels. Thanks!

    JJ is NOT a code for disc brakes. It is code for the tire bead configuration.

    The 1970 15" wheels were designed to fit disc brake applications, as were the 1971 and up 15" wheels. But the wheels differ from each other.
