I would assume yes as they are also the high polished aluminum with clear coat from GM.

NO DO NOT USE THEM ON HYPERSILVER. THIS WILL ONLY WORK ON GM PRODUCTS!!! All GM rims come with clear coat I have polished aluminum 17s and chrome 16s and have stripped them both. you'll wanna do 2-3 coats of stripper but make SURE, and I emphasize make SURE you just wash them down with water on the aluminums and immediately dry them right after you get through rinsing them or else you'll spend 2 hours per wheel trying to buff out the water stains and runs. Trust me my wheels look like crap this second because I havent had a chance to go get the mothers polish. and if you are concerned about having towash them all the time. Here is what you do
Get a flawless shine on the wheels where you already buffed and all that good stuff and now re-clear them. You'll keep the shine and when it gets hazey in a year and 1/2 just strip em again. its that simple. Hey its easier to maintain? Just my 2 cents
