Disc rims will work on a drum car. Is that what you are asking?

Also, you may want to read a post down below "69 Rally II wheel drum brake". It is in regards to a rim defined for drum vs disk brakes.

Just to ease your mind, it seems all 69 GTO's got JA rallys with the disk brake offset (just learned that on this board) weather they were disk or drum brake cars. If the factory thought it was ok...
