I posted a few pictures of the car my mom just gave me...it has these rims on it but I have no clue what kind they are. One of the knock-off center caps was missing from one of the rims and I found it behind the passenger seat, but it is missing the hub adaptor that goes into the rim...I have no clue what kind of rims they are and where I could find the hub adaptor. Here is one of the rims with the knock-off

Check the diameter of the opening at the wheel/mag then you should be able to go to aftermarket e.g. Mid America or Corvette Centrals etc and find the adapter for the "Spinner"

I had a set on a 1980 and 1984, haven't installed a set since, but as I recall I got mine from a Local Corvette Shop at Madison Nebraska now located at Colorado Springs, CO ;)

As I recall mine came with allen head set screws to lock onto the wheel/mag.. then the other end was threaded to accept the "Spinner"..

Those look like American Racing to me as well.

I'd like a set of those for my car, sweet wheels.
 
I've got to go with Tom-- American 200S:thumb

I looked at them when I was in the market for Ol' Red. For some reason I couldn't get the size or backspacing I needed then.
 
Way back when I had my 64 coupe, I wanted the polished version of the 200s wheels. I loved the look of them. Those look really nice on that C3.

I would go with American Racing also except they usually have their name on the spinner. Also, there is a rear stamping to ID them. AR makes this type wheel with both black and brushed centers and in a all chrome version.
 
It's somewhat dark and without definition picturewise. Thought this would help1974 Corvette rim.jpg
