Anyone remember these wheels? They were very popular back in the day on the LT1 Z's and TA's....



no particular reason for this thread just liked them a lot.

I recently sold a pristine set to a friend of mine. The ones I had sat in a garage from 7/98 to 6/06. They had less than 500 miles on them and still had the inspection stickers on the outside lips. He's not in love with the wheels, he just wanted the set to upgrade to 17s and 275s.

If anyone really wants this set, I can get pics and a price.

I had a set on my '98 T/A and sold them to a buddy who put them on his '91 RS. He still has them. I put the G2 World Challenge wheels (same design, but one piece) on my '69 for a few months and then threw them on the '01 WS6 when I got it. They're still a good looking wheel.

Yeah, I always liked the G2s better (between these two wheels) due to their one piece construction/lack of rim bolts.

The Enkei wheels were harder to clean too with all the bolts sticking out.

I just got my G2s back from refinishing. I love them.

On a side note later on I may try and sell them.

What would be a good asking price for a Immaculate set of the G2s?

Bump for a really old thread cause I wanna see somemore pics.
