Default What wheels do I have?
I bought a parts car, 94 Camaro, and it had theses wheels on them. They are 16 inch. Not sure what they originally came off of. Anyone?

They either came off a convertible SS or a F1 Camaro.

^ Yep, I remember the early 4th gen convertible SSs getting 16" wheels rather than the 17" version of this wheel. I think reproductions were also available for a period of time, or maybe they were just refinished/repaired originals.

Thanks for the info and leads. Seems like they might be kind of rare.

Rare, yes. Desirable....not so much. Unless maybe you can find someone trying to restore an early 4th gen SS convertible to exact factory specs, but even then it looks like these wheels would need to be refinished to be show quality.

Not much market for 16" wheels these days (not much tire selection either).
