they might be, but it is doubtful. some one might want them for drag wheels, or for restoring a 93 firehawk, but most guys want 17'' or larger wheels

for what it's worth, there actually ARE f-body owners who are looking for these wheels assuming they are original. try checking in on some firehawk forums.

if you post pictures, i'm sure that someone will get some ballpark prices. i have seem some go for $600+ depending on the condition.

TROLL! most posts i've seen with this "hey i have thes junk rims/lt5 engine/flux capacitor" and have no idea what its worth! are just trolls looking for attention, they know the picked a part someone will pay alot for, and are hoping some sap PM's them to buy them for a good price..which is fine, except the wheels dont exist. How do you come to own a set of firehawk wheels (that you clam to know they are) and not be able to do a quick google search on them to figure out they are in demand? scummer.

there were 16" ones.. most are 17"S and the impala ones just happen to look similar, not the same wheel.

Even the 1991/92 Firehawk wheel are 17 inch. I do not believe any real Firehawk wheels were 16 inch. Maybe some that looked like them.

IMPALLA! THAT'S IT! No wonder they looked familiar.. Looks like just Steeda Centercaps. I could have sworn I saw a similar set on the SLP Site a number of years ago.
