Default Please identify these wheels

Bought a cheap project truck to play with. New to Chevy trucks and am not sure if these are factory on some vehicle or just aftermarket with a bowtie cap. Base model 4.8 truck so I am fairly sure they are not factory for /this/ truck. A relative value or cost is appreciated as well. They are 20" and that's all I know right now.

Thanks!

Well this AM they identified them as "KMC Slides" over on PT.net. Hopefully can trade them for some take-offs with new-ish tires off a later-model Silverado. Want something nice but more low-key.

Thanks guys!

Look like Caddy wheels to me. Escalade style. Not really a fan of them to be honest.

those arent factory for that year silverado. Most likely came with painted steel wheels or the chrome clad steel wheels. Some came with cast aluminum 5 spoke wheels. These are the original wheels on my 05.

Thanks again for the help, guys. Chrome was good on the spokes but peeling inside the barrels of the wheels and tires were almost gone. So bought some new take-off wheels and tires off a 2015-ish truck or Tahoe and sold these and only came out of pocket $200. Now I don't have more show than go. And even with new shocks those heavy-*** KMCs rode like a dump truck. More like a new truck now. Once I add some power I might move back up to some Chevy or GMC 20s(these are 18s) but this is good for now. Keeps the butt-sweat smell out of my DD.
