Z16 wheels

Anybody have an idea what the polished Z16 wheels are worth. I have a chance to get some but I don't want to get taken. Thanks in advance.

.....Be nice to know. I am guessing around 700 without the commemorative caps.

Since there are only 2025 sets made, I would say at least $400 per corner.

Funny that you posted this question today. I phoned a local dealer here today for the same question. The fronts are $900 ea., the rears are $924 ea. I don't know if that's with center caps or not, so I'll call them again tomorrow to confirm. By the way prices qouted in CAD. funds.
Just for the record, the titainium exhaust is...drum roll, $1800 A SIDE !

The reason for my enquiery is that two friends of mine want the take off parts from my Z16.

I looked up the wheels without the caps on http://www.madvet.com and if polished Z06 wheels are the same, they are 699 per hoop, either front or back. I guess I was close.
Oh, and even though that Titanuim exhaust is a little ugly with the straps, I wouldnt change it unless you can replace it with an equal.
It starts sounding really throaty after a few thousand miles. In all reality it is almost identical to the Corsa Indy exhaust.

I just purchased a new set of polished wheels from a Chevy dealer in Delaware. The fronts list for $ 617.30 ( Net is $ 445.00 ) The rears list for $ 635.44 ( Net is $ 445.00 ) The center caps list for $ 33.78 each
( Net is $ 25.34 ) But there is no sales tax in Delaware.

Here is another option:
You can go on to http://www.gmpartsdirect.com and get better prices, but you will have to pay shipping charges. Also if you have any problems with the wheels you will have to ship them back again.
The prices on the site are as follows:
Fronts $ 364.20.... rears $ 374.85..... caps $ 19.94.
part#s (fronts) 9595433....(rears) 9595434 .... (caps) 9595436

I chose to pay the extra money ( At the dealer ) in case there were any flaws in the wheels. I know the fellow who sold me the wheels They are not yet mounted. In order to purchase these wheels from GM parts direct you must provide a serial number from a Z16 commemorative edition corvette. If you can't do this then you won't be able to order them from GM parts direct.
