If you're talking about the zr1 style rims then they may be rims off of a grand sport corvette.

yeah, powder coated, i've seen prices ranging anywhere from 35-100 per wheel to get them done. I want to do mine this spring, but I havent found anyone local who will do it.

What you've seen are 1996 Corvette Grand Sport wheels. I had a set on my 2000 Z28 that I bought from a dealer. The prices keep going up.... from Dal I paid about $326.00 each, but I imagine due to supply & demand, that price has gone up.

You can get replica black ones from AFS wheels (http://www.afswheels.com)

If you want to see what they looked like on my 2000 Pewter Z28, here's a pic:
