So those photos are your car with the light rims?
Interesting as they are the ones that are meant to be on my 17 calais and are much lighter

ha entirely possible , the first Holden dealer i rang said there was no such part number for the 138 variant

I ended up finding a spare one on Gumtree as they pop up every now and then ...

Now if only i can find a mint set of WN Caprice rims without getting bent over...

yeh I'm calling them 'light' compared to the 140 variant but they can look different depending on the lighting

Here's the same car , same rim but under brighter sunlight

Well I'm after the darker colour. I'll be selling mine once I source some if your interested. Car has only done 18k.
I'm going to look at my spare today and see what I actually have

Anyone got some pics of the SS variant of this wheel. Some close ups maybe.

Here's the SSV and MY 17 SS variant.

92507900 is the part number I had for the light coloured version. Maybe there is 4 variants. I've got the light version on my 17 calais V and want the wheels with darker inserts so it's closer in colour to the car which is phantom

There's 3 versions and the MY17 Calais V variant is almost silver, or very light grey. MY16 Calais V/Caprice are the same colour metallic grey as the Series 1 SSV wheels and the HF20's with the machined/polished spokes. The darker grey with the satin clear coat are the MY16 SSV and MY17 SS wheels. I'm pretty sure the MY17 SS wheels are part number 92774140.

Here's the MY17 Calias V wheels.

Yeah that's what I've got. The 17 calais wheels. But too light for me. I want either the 16 Calais or 17 SS.

Although I'm a fan of silver wheels, I don't think the MY17 Calais silver/light grey inserts suit the wheel design as well as the darker inserts.

I don't like the satin clear coat on the SSV/SS wheels as the OP said, it makes the machined area look more silver painted than the polished alloy look of the MY16 Calais/Caprice wheels coated in gloss clear.

Here's my Calais/Caprice wheels up close and I think the gloss clear coat gives the wheel more overall pop and bling!
