Bronze ZR1's ?
 

I just traded some wheels for some ZR1's, two of them are silver and two of them are like a gold color....not discolored, just produced this way.....they have not been painted, it is all factory.

My question is Are these rare?
What are two of them worth?
What in the heck did they com on?

I Dont Have One, The Questions Are Easy! It Is A Goldish Colored Zr1....what Were They On And How Rare Are They?

Pics!

sorry no pics guys, just need some advice....I may get pics by next week, they are gm stamped wheels so i know they are a factory bronze zr1, just have no idea what these may have came out on or if they may be valueable!....someone please advise!

They Came Off Of A Special Edition C4 Vett

They're off the special Bronze Incan edition Camaro. I'd hang on to them for sure!

I have searched everything over the net and cannot find these on a camaro or a corvette special edition....must be ghost wheels...ha ha if anyone can guide me to a picture or a more specific vehicle then please let me know

thanks for all your help in advance

what makes you think someone couldnt have PAINTED the factory gm stamped wheels?

To my knowledge, GM never made a ZR1 in any color other than Silver, Black, White or Chrome. Sounds like someone took a silver wheel and had it painted or powdercoated. The gm stamp will still show through even when painted over.

I can just tell that they are factory, these havent been painted....I found a newer style wheel that was a limited editon in gold but not found this type yet....it was like a gold C5 style

I do paintwork myself to so I am sure of that.....but I only have 2 of them, so iono if they are worth much more than a stock zr1

Agreed. Never were made. I know they made the Magnesiums in a bronze color tho

nope it hasnt been painted...they are factory bronze, just dont know what they came off of.

Did GM make a black wheel?? I did not know this!

i think until u have pics of the wheel nothing will be solved

yes they made a black wheel....the GS LT4 vette newbie! and dont you think its possible for a GOOD body shop to coat a set of wheels to make them look like an OEM job!

Yea I'm not a corvette guy, yea I like them but I dont study them, that was why I asked about the black wheel!!! And for the newbie comment, definately not a newbie to the hot rod world, I have a garage full!!! I dont spend alot of time on here but I know everything there is to know about an f-body....I have a 2000 ws6, a 1968 SS, 2 2000 SS M6 cars, and a 98 camaro, not counting a silverado truck that will run circles around ur lil 2002 camaro. So yes I didnt appreciate the newbie comment, only new to posting, if I have a simple question I am going to ask it on here!! And for your question about the body shop, it could be possible that they done a really clean job on the wheels, I have not taken mine off to trade the guy yet but when i do I will look closer at them. I am only going to use them to stick a couple nittos I have on them for a while and prolly sell the other two for someone else to do the same. Either way, the wheels arent worth much, this was only a curiosity question as to what i may have ended up with in this trade.

How do you know this? How can you tell that it has 100% not been painted or powdercoated.

someone else in canada is looking for the same thing it seems like...by the post below.....anyway, not that big of a deal thanks for all your help, i will just keep around for some radials. Have a good day

didnt mean your a BIG newbie....just a small newbie casue every GM guy should know that the corvette grand sport came with black ZR1 wheels...... just messing with ya anyways, no pun intended

If they look like c5 wheels, do they say magnesium on them?
