Does anyone know what original Corvette GS wheels are worth? I have 2 sets.

Posted by: SM95Z28 Nov 9 2006, 04:07 PM

Depending on the condition, maybe $700-800?

They're worth $175 - and I'll take both sets!

Each wheel right.

Front 17x9.5" wheel and rear 17x11" wheel GM list price is $641.42 per wheel. They list for $393.58 each at GM Parts Direct.

Front, originally part #12361447 for 17x9.5" is now 9592379. Rear, originally part number #12361446 is now part #9592480. The change was made in January 2000.

So, basically, you could most likely purchase a reliable economy car for the amount you'd receive for those.

These were original to my 1996 GS so they would be pre- 2000. Thanks for the help.

So half of new should be inline.

And they weigh 19# - that will matter enough for someone to pay 1/2 new. I have 2 full sets of these, paid about $1300 per set 5yrs ago.

I know your pain. I bought them back in 1996 and 1997 when they were still "New" I can still feel the rub.

They are much lighter than a set of same size HRE's I used to race with.

Are you putting them up for sale? If so, would you consider selling the 17x11s as a set? If so, I'm certainly interested... Let me get in line.

Probably not on the 17X11s. Then I would have a set of 17X9.5 fronts to try to move.

I am going to put them up for sale. I have to go and eveluate their condition. They have been in storage for several years.

My part numbers appear to be different than what is listed above.

I have one nice set of fronts and rears. They have clean lips with only a few chips on one of the rears. It looks like someone bounced off with an impact gun in a few spots.

I have one set that have been used for my rain tires and have been in my trailer for years. One of the fronts is good but the other 3 have at least 1/4 of the lip with mild curb rach and one of the rears has about half way around with mild curb rash.

I also have 1 spare rear wheel the has a bent lip and seat. I don't know if it is fixable.

All four Rears are 17X11X50 Part Number listed on wheel is 9592479 RJC
All four Fronts are 17.2X9.5X56 Part Nummber listed on wheel is 10214046 AFR

I will have to take some photos tomorrow and I will email them to who ever is interested. I already have a couple of guys who want pics.

I am still working on pics and wheel weights. I didn't figure anyone was in a big hurry since we are in the off season.
