Charcoal GTA wheels

I've seen black gta wheels, gold, and silver.

I've heard there is "charcoal"? Can someone post a pic of one if there is such thing?

They were also available in red and white. Technically they aren't GTA wheels either. They were used on Trans Am's, the GNX, GTA's, and rumored to be used on some 1LEs.
The GTA's always got gold centered wheels.

If you have the '91 Pontiac full-line catalog, there's a great profile picture of a Gunmetal Trans Am that sports the charcoal diamond-spoke rims. It's a good looking combo..... even if the tires are "touring" 235/60-16s.

The wheels used on the '87 GNX are similar in style but are not the same wheels used on the Pontiac F's...
