Default 30th Anniversary blue wheels?

Does anyone know of a company who sells replica 30th anniversary blue wheels or one that can do a similar coating to wheels? I really love that look, for some reason it makes me look twice everytime I see them. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

buy a 30th Anniversary T/A, keep the wheels, and junk the rest of the car


haha....I'm sure someone will chime in, I have always liked those wheels also.

Yeah, thoes wheels are extreemly expensive and hard to come by. Your best bet would be to get the early style WS6 wheels and have them annodized or tinted.

I like those wheels as well but preferred 18's and went wider.
So I went and made my own...........

Pictures didn't come out that good due to the poor lighting.

but they are actually blue anodized not painted. All done thru Kinesis when I had them custom made up.

I had many changes and options done in order for them clear my Baer six pots

so if memory serves me right they were like $1200 each. Look at the bright side I don't ever have to worry about seeing them on another F-body.

Isn't it just basically tinted clearcoat? Similar to painting candy colors.
