17" 10 Spoke Wheels

I am shopping for an HHR. Love the car. There is one option that my dealer just can't seem to help me with though. In the HHR info pamphlet that I picked up at the dealer there is a picture of a 17" 10 spoke Aluminum Wheel. It has a note under the picture that says the wheel is an available option from Chevy Accessories. Well, I checked at the Chevy Accessories counter at the dealer and he didn't have it listed online as an option. He made several calls, including one to Chevy in Detroit and 45 minutes later still couldn't tell me anything. I left my name and number for him to get back to me when he found something. Anyway, my question is: Does anyone have these wheels on their HHR? If so, how much did they cost you?

I know I can get custom wheels practically anywhere, but I really like the Chevy 10 spoke in the picture.

I've not seen those rims in South Florida anywhere. It would have made a difference of the color HHR I picked out. Would love to have a black 2 LT with the
10 spoke rims. As it is, I now have a Daytona Blue 2LT.

These are the wheels:



You should be able to order them through any Chevy dealer's Parts Dept.

Back to this one again...

I finally got an answer from a dealer regarding these wheels. Yes, they can be ordered some time in the future. They are currently unavailable, and no known date of availability. But here is the kicker, as you might have guessed, GM is very proud of them. $1948.72 plus tax, labor, mounting, balancing, etc for a set of 4. I believe I will just settle for something from Discount Tire or Tire Rack. No way I am goin to pay that much for those wheels!

Two grand for factory rims! Do they include a tub of vaseline with them?

No. They just shove it up your @$$ and hope it tears something.
