Hi, Jerry. I have admired your pristine 123 for years. The rims on my 1968, made-for-export 123 are stamped "Volvo", "Export", and "670429". They are also date stamped 10/67 which gives me some confidence that they are original to my very early 1968 123GT. I have measured these rims across the outer edge to outer edge of the rim, and this dimension is 4.5". I have been told this means they are 4-inch rims, presumably because the actual rim size is determined by the distance in between the 1/4" thick rim edges? I am running 165/R15 Vredensteins. Hope this helps.
