----It's not a rosewood. I can't quite tell the depth of the wheel, but looks like a 67-68 Corvette wheel

ehhhhhhh....could be...but check the depth of the wheel like olredalert mentioned. If it's shallow, it's a Camaro / Chevelle / Impala / Nova Rosewood. I believe the measurements are on the Camaro Resource Group. The measurements are out there.

With this picture it’s hard to tell……it has decent grain though. Good luck.

My guess is it's a walnut wheel.

IIRC, Corvette wheels were a 1 piece housing, not a 2 piece like this one.

Phone pic didn’t show true color. Definitely not walnut. I’ll take a pic beside a walnut wheel, definitely completely different color with a red hue to it vs brown walnut
