Re: 1996 Rare Z28 double spoke rims OEM in chrome
The Camaro White Book indicates in 1996 they (RPO "N98") were ordered on 4,871 Z28's. In 1996 there were 17,844 Z28’s in total. 1996 was the only model year the chrome "salad shooters" were offered.
The fact that someone on eBay is asking $170 for a single wheel, when you probably could barely give away the non-chrome version, would seem to indicate they are fairly rare, at least in decent condition like the one in the picture.

There is a newer version covering to 2011, and an older version that only covered thru 1997.
N98 was only the "Chrome Aluminum Wheels, 16-inch $500.00”. N98 continued in future years thru 2000, but 1996 was the only year for the 2-spoke.
Interesting guide to Camaro wheel designs.

Re: 1996 Rare Z28 double spoke rims OEM in chrome
For really detailed info on your car, go to the Compnine website and enter you VIN. Will give you the build date, a complete breakdown of all the service parts and option codes, and the number of cars built with each item. Then they give you an estimate of how "rare" your car is. But too many cars come up "1 of 1", because they are breaking it down based on numerous details like the RPO codes for each of the four individual suspension coil springs.
