They're almost impossible to find as the extra sets have been hoarded away by the collectors.

You're not wanting to put these on your pewter Z28 are you?? Let me urge you to reconsider if you are.

That would be the best thing to do. Those things are just about worth their weight in GOLD.

Leave that thing Pewter and put some Charcoal rims on it!

If you're gonna do blue wheels, then you've got the right idea. Blue painted wheels......./shudder. Blue chrome is about the only way I could handle a blue wheel but I don't think I could stomach it on anything but a 30th TA.

I'd sell you mine but I already sold them some time ago.

Go aftermarket as you can get wider sizes than 9"

Here is what I replaced mine with 18x11 rear

The 30th wheels are anodized.

The 30th anniversary t/as are ugly as hell, but I do like the wheels. They would look good on a regular white trans am or camaro.
