...I think they'd look cool, but I always like black rims with a polished trim/lip.

I thought it was "Collector's Edition Trans Am"?

Anyways, it's just like any other early style 4th gen WS6 wheel, only black. Black wheels are not my cup of tea, (except for GTA wheels, there is enough polished area to offset the black) but different strokes for different folks.

Just find yourself a set of WS6 wheels and have them powercoated black for about 1/4 the cost. Same setup.

I have always been interested in those wheels but in the blue color they had made them in back in the mid 90s. Anyone seen a thirdgen with those yet?

Those would be the 1999 30th anny t/a wheels, pretty tough to find and if you do you will pay big $.

Yeah those are them. They are off of a 99 huh? Well, those are the ones that I was thinking of. Pretty interesting wheels to come from the factory. I believe they came off of an earlier model as well, the pre-LS1 Trans-Am with the round fog lights in the front bumper with the single blue stripe(instead of two) going down the center of the car. Maybe 25th also?! Would like to see those on a white or blue thirdgen.

1999 30th Anniv. T/A had blue 17"s. And two blue racing stripes.

1994 25th T/A had white 16"s. And one blue racing stripe.

Maybe the guy had swapped out the wheels then. They were on a car at a car show a couple of summers back. Either way, doesn't really matter. Nice wheels.

Are there any clones of the blue 30 ann. TA available? Or better yet a company that anodizes wheels? Links?
