I'm sure any 3 piece wheel can be disassembled, dipped, sprayed, powder-coat, or anodized and then assembled.

They look like carbon fiber though. With a pattern. How do they do that?

For now, I'm guessing they don't want to reveil they're secrets, but underneath it is 6061-T6 aluminum.

Ryan, what's up with the back caliper being at the front of the rotor?

Car looks good. Paint it, lower it, and tint it.

i had many folks at the swap meet yesterday ask me about my wheels, i dont know much about them except i bought them off ebay for 140.00 delivered to my door, i thought about putting new wheels on my car but seems i get alot of comments on them everywhere i go and had'nt seem them on another fiero yet so i'll leave them on it for now, i like the chrome look better than dull aluminum

Thats how it is on the 87s. Its already lowered it just isn't settled in that pic. I took that pic right after I got it back on the ground. Once my 3800sc swap is done it will be getting paint and some new glass and tinting.

Yeah I knew that earlier years were like that, but I saw 88 calipers. I guess you somehow found a way to adapt them.

Ordered them today with my Bushbucks, pix next week sometime. There is a repaint to gunmetal in my future, these are toward that end.

What kind/size of wheels are on the Indy in your sig? I like them. Got a larger pic? Are you replacing them?
