Default Identifying wheels.

I just swapped my chrome Z06 wheels out of a set of stockers today. I am trying to id them so I can set the price i'm going to sell them at.

They are stock size (17's & 18's). There is a GM stamp inside them. I'm going to clean them up so I can read all the numbers. How can I tell where these are from? The guy swapping the tires even commented on how much lighter the stockers are...

If there is a GM stamp on the inside - they are stock wheels that have been chromed in the aftermarket.
