35th Aniversery Wheels

You know how come no one has them on their thirdgen yet?! I found them for $270 each. If you don't know which ones I mean here is a few pictures.





Are they the same as all other 4th gen wheels?

That is a great price for those wheels. They are very rare and are a machined version of the standard SS 10 spoke. They are really good looking wheels with the black inside and machined spokes. They only came on the SS cars like you posted with the full aniversary option.

I like those wheels, but does anyone know where you could get some of the rims from the collectors edition Trans Am? I've seen one in person and those rims look so nice.

Just like those SS wheels they will be hard to find. People just don't run out and change their wheels on collector cars. You cannot buy these from GM or SLP or anyone else. 270 is an amazing price considering that real SLP ZR1 wheels go for much higher sometimes. Under $300 for any 17x9 wheel is a good buy.

Yeah, I figured they would be hard to find. I wish some company would make a replica of them.

I am sure someone will one of these days. Those wheels are fairly new so I would just be patient. I would check ebay because you never know what pops up there.

I'll keep on the look out for them. In my opinion, they take everything that is good about the black GTA wheels, but get rid of the ugly wire design and add better looking spokes.
