Hello Everyone! I’ve read in forum post that 2000 c5’s came with a wheel different that other years. I’m trying to identify if these are of that variety or if they are aftermarket. Any thoughts?
Is GM or Speedline stamped on the back? The Thin spokes were forged in the early 2000s, and they were painted silver. The Speedlines after that were polished.

Those appear to be chrome wheels - if so, they could be GM or aftermarket. If GM, there will be a GM logo on the back of one of the spokes. If no logo (or Speedline wording) on them, then they are aftermarket.
BTW, GM did not offer chrome wheels for the C5 from the factory. If they are GM wheels, either the dealer/prior owner had them chromed or they were purchased as part of a chrome wheel exchange from a vendor.
