Default 2000 and 2001 Wheels

Is there a difference between them? They look the same to me. :confused:

The earlier wheels were forged. The spokes are a little smaller and the edges shaper. I’m not sure exactly when in 2001 GM switched, but now the wheels are cast, so the spokes are a little bigger and the edges more rounded. The same thing happened to the Z06 wheels. – C.
