Default What OEM wheel is this exactly?

From my searching it sounds like this is a common sportline wheel? But it is chrome (at least it sure looks chrome) and from what I gather these were not factory chrome? Maybe I'm way off... These were on a 2000 WS6 I bought, and basically I'm gonna sell them but I want to know what they are first.

Sorry for the noob question, but I've never had a factory set of wheels before...

That's not the Speedline wheel, it is RPO QF6 which was a polished finish WS6 wheel and would be correct for a 2000 model (this was actually the optional wheel for '00 WS6, though it was vastly more common than the standard RPO N66 3-spoke wheel that generally wasn't well received.) Speedlines did not re-appear on F-body until 2001 (after having been previously used on Comp T/A and Firehawk years earlier.)

This wheel could also be had in chrome via the aftermarket (several sources, including SLP), but that's not how it came stock. And that appears to be a stock wheel based on the GM embossed stamp in the inner portion of the lip between the spokes. The wheel you have pictured above is a polished finish; chrome looks much more mirror-like than this.

Haha, so everything I "figured out" was wrong... Thank you for the help. Would the $500 range be a good price for the set then, since they are nothing special?
