Uhh, more details?

WS6 was handling package on TAs, GTAs, and Formulas.

There were 4 colors of Crosslace wheels and a Turbo Tech wheel offered under WS6.

Hi guys!
Don't forget, some of these rims also came in solid gold too. Like the '85-'86 style. Or the '84 style.
GTA rims came in quite a few colors on the mesh part too.
What color car are you looking to put them on?
I myself, have a set of the 16x8 gold WS6 wheels for the '85-'86 style for sale. Only one NOS center cap, the other 3 don't even have the caps.

Later,

George

I'm new and registered since JMD informed me of someone potentially looking for the kinda wheels I have. I have 2 fronts and a rear (the 4th/rear wheel I bought was found to have a crack in it). The clear coat could use removing while the rest/black paint parts look pretty good. I'm in Mesa, AZ and have the 3 wheels in the storage shed, ready for pickup/delivery. I was asking $150 for them. If not, soon they'll go on my S-10, if I can find 2 more fronts or 1 more rear....

The wheels I have are the "20 slot" ones, pictured in JMD's and 82FirebirdTA's posts. 16x8's. It's the type labelled:
"1985-1988 16X8"

Rob in AZ<--dunno how to post a picture of the kinda wheel I have
