Wheel choices 16" ?
What wheel choices are available in 16" one of my rims is bent and I just got new tires 50 miles ago. No desire to get another set. I know I can upgrade the size but not really interested in doing that. 87 vert BF Goodrich 255 50 16.

Really?!! Dude that sucks. Well, I would just keep searching some of the larger wheel sales webpages, and maybe look up tomzwheels. They are a supporting vendor and almost everyone likes them. I had a discount tire company store in San Antonio really hook me up good with another vehicle. You may want to hit up a tire store as your last resort. Sorry about the bent rim.
I just found this:

I don't know if you like the wheels, but the price they have isn't bad.

Here is a google search showing some sites to get 1987 Corvette wheels. You may have to end up replacing the set to get matched.

There are tons of choices. Check centerlinewheels.com for example.
And you can buy original wheels cheap.
Mine are the Centerline SUNDANCE SERIES-DAGGER. They were on the car when I bought it but I do think that they were a good choice.
