They look like 01-02 WS6 rims. They also used a similar rim on 95ish Firehawks.

They look different than stockers, I don't know how to explain it, but if you look at where the spoke for a ZR1 rim connects to the out lip, well the spoke on these rims look similar to that. I was looking at some ROH wheels and they look a lot like the ZS, btw Brent, ever get my email??

It's really hard to tell, but they might be the stock wheels, with the lil caps removed... here is a comparison pic pretty damn close if not the same...

Yep, I think you are right! They looked a LITTLE different than the stockers but I thought that may have been due to the lighting or something. Damn... they are so close I don't think I'd spend any extra money on those "aftermarket" wheels. LOL!

I'm with him. I'm 90% positive those are 01-02 T/A WS6 wheels. Look here for pics.

But then you'd be stuck with the crappy stock sizes

Yeah , Hey at least they are 17's.

I think they look good from the angle of that first pic. They have a deeper dish look to them, kinda interesting.
