Default Factory SS wheels

Are the chrome 10 spoke SS wheels sold by SLP exactly identical to the ones that could be ordered from the factory. What about the centercaps? If not, what are the differences?

Yeah they are the same. I think correct me if I'm wrong. But I think the Chrome 10 spoke's was an option from SLP when the buyer ordered there car.

You are correct, but from what I can tell, the centercaps are different. The factory ordered centercaps don't have the bowtie like the ones SLP include with their wheels. Where can I get the original chrome 10 spoke centercaps?

Center caps on the Factory 10 spokes (painted), the Chrome SLP 10 spokes, the 16" Z28 [Snowflakes[/i], C5 Corvette 5 spokes, and the C5 Z06 center caps are all interchangable.

FYI

Right, but I want to purchase the ORIGINAL FACTORY chrome SS centercaps that would have came with the purchase of an 02 black SS. Do I have to get these from GM?

I thought you could get those through SLP? Occasionally you'll find a set on ebay also. Good Luck.

No such thing as a FACTORY CHROME CAMARO SS center cap . .

. . . GM NEVER sold chrome wheels on an SS, ALL chrome wheels on the SS came from SLP, even if you ordered the car . . .

So to get an SS replacement center cap you need to call SLP.
