Default Performance Wheel Outlet...Quality????

Hey, anybody buy wheels from performance wheel outlet?? Im thinking about getting a set of silver Z06 rims for my TA and wrapping them in G force KDs up front and nitto drags out back but Im really concerned about the quality. AFS has Z06 wheels, but they only come in chrome, and I want the silver and PWO has a good price. Any help is much appriciated.

GMHTP magazine ran a story about using their wheels for Thunderchicken. They looked good in the photos.

Before you buy ask about weight.PWO ZR1 wheels are about 4lbs heavier.Also make sure they have proper offsett.Again on 17x11 they told me they only had 36mm offset, not the GS 50mm.I'm not sure what the deal is with there Z06 rims,but make sure on those two points before you buy

They're not axactly the straightest wheel. If I ever buy another set of "knockoff" wheels, it won't be from PWO.
