Identify these OEM Rims

I found a set on craigslist for corvette rims, What were these off of? Are they 2 piece? How rare, and how much do these sets go for? I'm thinking of using them on my '2000 s10 with spacers

Those don't look OEM from anything. Look like aftermarket wheels with the ZR1 emblem in the middle

Re: Identify these OEM Rims

If im not mistaken if they were oem they will have a gm stamp on the backs of the spokes...if not look for some kinds of markings and google them and see what you can find

Re: Identify these OEM Rims

I think I see a JWL cast in around 11:00 on those... weird. They look familiar but I cant place them right now...

Edit: I was thinking of these... but theyre not right either...



And another set if those jongbloed wheels:



they're not quite close enough but man they are similar. Wonder if they're some kind of cheaper knockoff of those...

Jwl is japan wheel, a test standard like dot. The wheels however do look like older jongbloed wheels. They will be 3pc. How much are they? 17"? I want them for my corvette lol

Re: Identify these OEM Rims

Those don't look OEM at all. Those look a little like a set of rims a guy ran on an autocross camaro in the early 90s. I read it in an old magazine.

Re: Identify these OEM Rims

The wheels in the first post clearly have a stepped lip around the hub for a centercap, and 3 threaded holes for to bolt in. The vette centercap isnt supposed to be there. It doesnt fit the wheel and its the wrong size etc.
