Are these OEM? https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.corvetteforum.com-vbulletin/2000x1504/ecf675af_fbb0_4cbb_966a_80a363160bf4_c7d6a0f853979c7fab6fe7252820916e5e95b374.jpeg

That’s what I thought. Just picked up a set of used speed lines in metallic grey.

Can't tell if the style is the same, however look aftermarket, not colored OEM's.

But weight and strength aren't. The OEM are lightweight forged or spincast. Pretty good stuff. Aftermarket are cast -- by no means unusable, just not quite the same as the OEM.

Dunn, can’t tell precisely from your pic. You may need to pull a wheel and check the markings on the back. I say this because it is true that the black finish isn’t OEM, but an OEM wheel could have been refinished- exactly something that I did and they looked very similar to your pic.
