Default Identify This wheel

These were on my 2002 Camaro Z28 when I bought it a few months ago. Are these truly 2002 Camaro wheels? If not, what did they originally come on?

Yeah those are snowflakes, I have them on my '02 Z28 but in chrome. They actually look decent in chrome but I really don't like them and can't wait to get new rims.

^ I always heard of them as snowflakes too, but I think the original snow flakes are these:


I was trying to sell mine for the longest time but no one wanted them. Saving em for track wheels now.

Yes there factory wheels on the Z28 and V6 as well as the 16" 5 spoke wheels that come in either chrome or painted just like yours.

Just keep them and use them for back ups if something happens to what looks like the ZR1's in your sig. Or throw some DR's on them.

I'm actually going with these Torq Thrust's and keeping the ZR-1's for spares, selling the snowflakes.
