Unanswered: Opel GT wheels.

I have been told that the wheels I have are rare wheels, and are worth money. Is that true? If so, how much are they worth?

These are my wheels.

Matt;
Those are easily available, they're just the early rally wheels that were available on both the GT and the Manta Rallye.

Chromed Kadett Rallye Wheels are rare

If they were originally chrome plated rather than painted silver then they would be rare. The chromed rallye style wheels with the blitz hub caps were available in 1970 and without the blitz hub caps in 1969 and 1968 as an option for the Rallye Kadett only according to the sales brochures from those years. I have a set of chrome rims that I pulled off a junkyard '70 Rallye Kadett that will eventually be mounted on one of my GT's. I've never seen another set outside of the sales brochures. They should have been optional on GT's and I plan to correct that oversight!

Chrome Rallye Wheels

I have a set of Chrome Rallye Wheels on my GT. I use them with the center caps & the beauty trim rings.

They look great!
