Default Question about Z-06 wheels

I'm on the verge of pulling the trigger on a Z-06 and I'd like to confirm that I'm getting OEM wheels. What markings would appear on original '02-'04 Z-06 wheels?

Thanks

If the car is nice except for the rims, you would pass on it?

Stock c5 rims are pretty reasonable. I have 4 or 5 sets for different tires.

For 18" 02 - 04 Speedlines wheels only

Emobssing on back of wheesl is:

GM
9594810
18x10.5Jx58
SL1732

Don't have the 17" embossing but it is similar. I think the Speedline number is SL1731 in lieu of SL1732 for the 18"

Froggy - usually the wheels would not be a deal breaker, but I'm actually looking at a Z-16 that is missing the original polished alum wheels. I'm sure you're aware they are not easy to find. The seller has replaced them w/Z06 OEMs (argent). At this point, I'd just like to confirm they are OEMs.

p.s. I sold my C-4 with the harness bar and harnesses that you sold me. So I'm looking for a bar and harnesses for C5 Z06. Seems I'm following your lead - C-4 to Z-16. Thanks
