OK,It is a GM accessory wheel,Short part number CK801,Long GM part numbers 12499375 or 88962801.

However it has been discontinued from GM. It was an accessory wheel that was out for the '99-'07 GMT800 trucks/SUV's,and had a list from $712.86 to $844.28 each,depending on what part number was ordered,one part number was ordered if you only needed one wheel,the other was ordered if you needed a set of four.

Try looking at this website for a GM Accessory Dealer in Frisco, Texas just outside of Dallas. Wheel shows to be available in limited quantities for $443 each in 20". Not sure about the width. Joshua Hughes runs their department and tell him Jim Brown referred you. he'll take care ofyou.

 

Search part number 12499375. www.yourgmparts.com

Perfect. Thanks again. Now I need to hunt a set of these down. Looks like I am going to either have to find a used pair or buy new aftermarket.

Call Josh toll-free at 866-626-2502. they are a good looking wheel but $1774 + shipping for a set is way too much for me.

It's insane what GM charges for wheels. This wheel cost them no more than $200 ea and the only reason it was that high was because of the extremely low volumes of these accessory wheels. I was involved in some of the up-front planning and development on several of the first group of GM Accessory wheels for the GMT800 & 900. GM purchased these wheels through a company called Tecstar which was once a division of Starcraft Industries. Tecstar jobbed the manufacturing of these wheels out to various wheel companies. Tecstar was the 2nd stage manufacturer that outfitted the extra goodies on the GMT800 Z71 Tahoes and the Cadillac ESV Platinum. I used to work for the company that made the wheels for both of those vehicles. Oh, and the original question about "name that wheel"...the original name given to that wheel by the program team that developed the GM accessory wheels was "The Pop-Tart." Sorry, but true story. :mad:

At least the chrome seems to be holding up quite well on the accessory wheels from what I've seen here.

Now the factory 22" chrome wheels on the '07-up Escalade's......We are changing them like crazy under warranty for the chrome peeling,It starts peeling on the inside,and then works its way out to the edge of the spokes,Of course they are...."Made in China"! :cool:
