Default What wheels do I have?

One of the front wheels is bent and I need a new one. It is a 17"
Any idea what wheels I have?
I have been searching the board and I haven't seen any cars with the same wheels I have.

Can someone help me out?

Looks like the painted stock 5 spoke to me. Take it off and look on the back for a GM stamp and part number

I absolutely hate chrome.
If i don't get a new set of wheels, I am going to powder coat these black or a charcoal grey.

damn travis, i didn't know you bought a C5. welcome to the club! i have a set of stock Z06 wheels that came on the new one we bought that i'm going to sell. they're powdercoated black in the center and the lip is still aluminum. they look good, but we already had aftermarket 18's on the old one and i just swapped them.
