I'm looking to see if there is any interest in the wheels I am currently running on the Z26. I bought them new, and have had them since 2001.

These wheels have long since been discontinued, so I'm not sure how to price them. Maybe $700 OBO?

Specs:
17x7 38et, dual bolt pattern (5x100/5x115)
Comes with lugnuts and lugnut removal tool, along with extra lugs.

They are straight and true, and in pretty nice shape for being on the car over 11 years. There is one wheel with very minor curb rash, a couple with rock chips, and I believe one that has a scratch in it from the idiots that installed the current set of tires on them. Basically, if you want perfect wheels, they will have to be refinished; but they are damn nice as is. I'll post current pictures of them after I clean the car (maybe this weekend if I have time).

If you want the tires that are on the car, you can have them, but they are due for replacement. The tires are Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star Spec's in 225/45/17. All tires are just about to the wear bar.

It would be cheaper to ship the wheels without the tires, so if someone wants to do that, I'll be game either way.

Delivery to BFest is a possibility; obviously I'll have to get situated with new wheels to do that!

For anyone that cares, these will obviously work with stock brakes, and also the F-body upgrade. Caliper clearance is not an issue running F-body calipers or Corvette calipers. I doubt there would be clearance issues with the Wilwood setup available for the Cavaliers as well.

The pictures show the original chrome centercaps, but I have since switched to a brushed aluminum look with no logo in the center. Updated pictures off each wheel will be added within the next week.

I've always loved how they are a more aggressive style of the 7-spoke Z26 meat slicers. Great upgrade for a true Z26.

After seeing these on your car for over a decade, I don't think they'd look right on anything but a Cayenne Z26.

A few reasons, mostly performance oriented, but I've been thinking about new wheels for about 2-3 years now...

My guess is that they have too much weight for you.
