KatzManDu’s Citroen CX post got me wondering, so let’s see them.

I nominate the wheels from the early second generation Cavalier Z24. Only in the ‘80s could you get away with square center caps.

Those look like some French aftermarket wheels. I think these came from factory with these.

The ones from the CX are definitely the best looking. These are maybe more eighties, though:

If the top wheels are what I think they are, then they are OEM.

The 9000 was launched in 1984. And that one is from the 90s, but I believe it had the wheels in the 80s as well, and it was the best picture I could find.

It must have been the rage with mid-80s, mid-engine wedges.

Only thing missing is “TURBO” lettering on the wheels themselves.
