Not original for sure, factory Z06 wheels were not made like that

Had a set just like those when I bought my car. Mine were much heavier than thin spokes, and the fake rivets were a pain to try to keep clean.

Those are definitely reproduction wheels. They are called Z06 Motorsports.

Thanks everyone. Thats what I figured. Are they worth picking up for $400-500 for all 4 wheels? Three have run flats, one does not have a tire. Tires are not the best tread wise, but they would just be extras

In my opinion, which is biased by the set I had, is that they are only worth it if you like the tires and trust they will serve you well. The wheels look good on the car, and the spokes will flash very nicely as you run through your neighborhood, but they are devilish to clean, and the weight can be ponderance.
