    From what my restoration book says 15x7" Rallye wheels, /6 and 318 engine cars had 14x5-1/2" wheels.

     Unforunatley not much help with the broadcast sheet. I found it glued to the floor under the carpet. I think it came with road wheels but thats the best I can see.

    If they were road wheels they were probably 14".

    Here's a page from stockmopar's '70 brochure.
