Anyone seen these factory WS6 rims?

OK, so I don't have a pic (although I SHOULD have taken a pic). My buddy bought a '00 WS6 a couple years ago and moved over to Germany. That's why I don't have immediate access to the car for pics.

I swear these are factory rims, but they are chrome, 3-spoke design. Each spoke is flat and swept back. Yes, they have the Pontiac logo in the center cap. The car is all stock.

Anyone else seen these wheels on one? His car is the ONLY car I've ever seen with these wheels on them.

They are factory. As far as I know they didn't put them on very many cars.

They really don't look to bad on the car. It's even hard to find a picture of them on a car.

That's it, them's the one's! I never thought they looked all that bad. I did see their car while I was in Germany sitting in a parking lot and it's a sad sight. The wheels are all curbed and his wife hit something on the right front and busted up the headlight. F-bodies should be confiscated from abusive owners....

Those look really aggressive on there - I like them - they are my favorite driectional wheel I have yet seen on an F-Body.

Neat, never knew there was more than one style WS6 wheel.

They kind of look like the early 4th-gen V6 wheels to me...

They're not the worst rims I've seen on a car.

They don't look that bad. Honestly they look like they belong on a Grand Prix though. I have never seen those around here. Another set I have never seen in person and the "blue" WS6 wheels that come on the pace car. I seen a poster at the dealership but never seen them in person...have yall? I think they look really good on a white car.
