What kind of wheels are these?
I bought this car used( of coarse) and noticed that the wheels on it are not rally sport wheels. They must have been added to it or something. Does anyone know what they are?

Re: What kind of wheels are these?
They were Z28 wheels from 82-87. Sport coupe wheels in 88, RS (rally sport) wheels from 89-92. They never came with a spinner on any year though, ha In 91-92, base models camaros (rs) could be had with optional 16" wheels, which we're 16" Z28 wheels. Long of the short,...those are rs wheels on 89-92 models. Some correct me if I'm wrong, not sure about 85-87 but I'm pretty sure both Z28 an IROCs were offered then.

I know that those were the wheels I had on my '85 Z28, but mine were gold.

correct, Z28 wheel from 82-87. in 88, when they had no Z28, only the IROC, they were the wheels used on the sport coupe. in 89, (when the rs was re-introduced) through 92, those wheels were used on the the base model coupe or rs.
they're BOTH early Z28 wheels, AND rs (and 88 coupe) wheels, just depends on the year of the car they came on. the ones on early Z28s and later model rs' are the exact same wheel, painted differently.
if thats a pic of the wheel on your car, and it's a 92 rs, that would not be the wheel that your car came with. In 91 and 92, the 'base' rs wheels, (which those would be) would be painted body color, with aluminum lip/face. you're car also could have come with 16" Z28 wheels, it was a pretty common option.
if those were NEVER painted...they would then be either 82-87 Z28, or 89-90 rs wheels.
