I have seen Chrome Camaro replicas & Firehawk replicas, but not WS6's. Only place I know of to get them new is the dealership & they are quite expensive.

Lakeshore sells 98-00 ones, chrome, silver and polished. They sell the 01-02 ones as well. Also the rare "saw blade" ones.

Yep, I had them on my WS6 for a couple years. Great wheels, and the only place to get them in Chrome since SLP stopped selling them.

Don't buy the same wheels you have just to get chrome thats a waste of money man, my friend had a pewter TA with chrome SLP firehawk wheels and it looked really good. Don't waste your money, but then again its yours so do what you want.

I have them on my 98 wS6, only cost me $200 after selling my stockers.
(I found them from a friend)

I really like them, much more shiney than the stockers, once the clearcote starts to yellow.
