Default Are these for a Monte?

A guy has these for sale. He is claiming that they are S-10 rims. I have never seen these on an S-10, but they look a lot like Monte or Impala rims. Anyone know what they would have been for? I sold my nice rims and now I just have the black steel wheels that were under the LS wheel covers. These are cheap and would look a little better than what I am running now.

That's what I was thinking. They would definitely be better than the nasty black stock plain steel rims that are on my car now.

I'll eventually get nice rims again, but I'm thinking that for $100 for the set of 4, these will work for now.

Hard to tell without a bolt pattern.

There is no way they would work on an s-10 or any RWD with that offset. Those are for FWD cars, regardless of the bolt pattern

the B-Body Impala SS's had similar rims



but the B-Body rims had thinner spokes. Those that you poasted look like W-body rims.
