wagon wheels
can anyone tell me what year C5s came with these wheels? I do not see many of them so I often wonder who made them for GM, material they were made of,etc. I think I have too much time on my hands when I ask this kind of question! thanks.......Doug34

I believe 97-99, many don't like them, there are a couple of long threads on the subject.
Mine is a 99. Aluminum alloy of some sort, readily available on Craig's list.

Yes, they came on standard on the '97-99 C5s. And they are an aluminum wheel.

Wagons came on 97-99 c5s. Really showed the age of the car with them on. I didn't mind them, but replaced them to give the car more of a modern look. They're collecting dust in my garage in case I ever decide to sell the car.

I still have wagon wheels on my 99 black vert. I really don't like the dull silver/alum finish and would have replaced those immediately if it came with those. The wagons that are on the car are chromed and don't look bad against the black. I'll still replace them in the future (I'm looking) for an updated look, but they're OK for now.
