I appreciate the sharp ebayers out there trying to help! Yes the build sheet (send me your emails & I will send the build sheet and others pics) states it did indeed come with the Honeycomb wheels but at some point was changed to the aluminum snowflake wheels, which I consider an upgrade. These upgrades are bolt-ons. The car can be easily returned to totally stock condition if you choose to do so.
