For sale.
I have a pair of new 15x7 aluminum repro GN wheels that came from GBody Parts.
They were included with my current car. They are new, never installed, just taken out of the box for pictures. They are in excellent NIB condition and each wheel comes with 1 center cap, 5 lug nuts and 1 chrome valve stem. (Total of 2 caps, 10 lugs, 2 stems) Back spacing is the same as stock at 3.75". Normal retail varies from $220 - $269 each, plus shipping, depending on where you look.
I will take $420.00 shipped to the lower 48 states. I don't have any plans on switching my current wheels, so I figured I would pass along a deal to a fellow Turbo Buick owner.
Let me know and thanks in advance.

Hello JEvans22.
Interested in buying, or are you saying these are on your want list?

I will entertain offers everyone.

I’m interested in buying yet I’ve noticed a few guys keeping there original steels and selling these. I wanted to review them real quick before I pull the trigger.
 
I completely understand and can respect that.
The biggest gain is the weight loss going from stock steel to these.
There are multiple posts on here, some more recent, showing the weight differences.
I know if I were restoring a GN, I would love to run these vs the heavy steelies.
 
Update.

New price, $395.00 shipped in the lower 48.

I know everyone is busily shopping around for the best deal during tax return time, so here's a great one.

I read on the Gbody site that the weight difference is bout 10 lbs for the 7 " and 11 lbs for the eight " , So all 4 would be 40 ish Lbs but I don't know how that translate to moving weight , Keith
 
IIRC, 1# removed of rotational weight, is the equivalent of removing 7#'s of regular weight. Or something like that.
I just remember what Lawrence used to preach. "Ounces = lbs, take everything unnecessary out when racing."
So to me, that meant, glove box contents, center console contents, ash tray, washer fluid, CD and or tape from the radio, floor mats, rear seat belts, trunk carpet and anything in trunk, etc, etc.
:D
 
Weekend bump.
Here's a few more pics and open to offers.

Question , Is the center made with the wheel ? or is it separate ? if so can you post a pic . Thanks You Keith
 
The center caps are removable.
These have a locating notch in the wheel that you align the cap too. Kinda like a cam sensor cap. The ring locks the cap to the wheel with spring tension.
Much better than stock IMO.
See pics.
