Default Anyone know what wheels these are? (335s on stock z06)

Buying this 02 z06 on Saturday. As far as I know, the car didn't come with chrome from the factory, and the rear tires are 335s.

But they look like the factory wheels, same pattern and everything...

They could possibly be stock Speedline Z 06 wheels that have been chromed.
The markings GM & Speeline are stamped on an inner spoke on each wheel.
More than likely they are aftermarket & not chromed Z wheels.
Only way to find out is pull a wheel & look at the inner side for stamped markings.
Good luck.

There is a aftermarket company that made 18x12's in a Z06 style rim. My buddy has them on his vert. They are kinda rare now.

They've got to be factory reproductions because there is NO WAY a 335 would fit on a 10.5" wide wheel.

I've heard quite a few people insist that there is no way 335's can fit on this car without either sticking out significantly, or having the wheel wells cut. Apparently it can work though.

House of wheels used to sell those in 18X12" now the only ones you can get are C6 Z06 style.
Can you post up a pic from more of the rear, I'd really like to see how much they really stick out.

I don't have the car yet, picking it up this weekend. I'll take a rear shot when I get it.
