When I purchased my '98 GTS project car it came with a mis-matched set of wheels. I have recently purchase a complete set of 19" HRE 546's to replace them when the car is complete.

The fronts have 11 x 17" Forgeline's.... but the rear had stock wheels (13 x 17") but in a gold finish. What year and how many cars were made with gold wheels??

PS. If anyone is interested, I will be selling the wheels in March.

Laura,

Yes, I just have two the two rear gold rims. The rims themselves are in very good shape except the edges have some curb rash which could be fixed for about $100 per rim.

I could send pics if you want.

Anthony,
If you don't mind, I would appreciate if you could you send me, or post the pictures of the rims you have. Although, to be quite honest, I don't think I'd be interested in them if they are curb rubbed, but let me see just how damaged they are.
Does anyone know why the rims in the picture posted by by Viperweb are not polished, or is it just the picture making it look that way??? The 97 GTS that I was looking at a couple of years ago at Security Dodge in Amityville definitely had polished Gold wheels.
Thanks,
Laura

The gold rims look like they're not polished. One of the members in our region bought a 97 GTS last winter that had the silver sparkle wheels and not the polished chrome ones. I don't think they look as good as the polished chrome ones. I suspect that would be my opinion once I saw the gold ones in person. Mark B is right -- rare but not necessarily desirable.
