Default New Wheels

These wheels were found in my uncles garage. He restored older corvettes. We are thinking these wheels fit a vette from 1968-1972? These wheels are in the orginal box, with the caps still in orginal packaging. What are these worth? I have posted 3 pictures.

Actually they are for 88z51/z52 -89 model yr. You'll do better trying to sell them in the C4 section.
Here's a guide with pics to help you out.
