Here is where I got mine:

http://www.xmotorsports.com/home/

I paid $1295 shipped for 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

They also offer blank center caps..

Its funny cause I went there and they are using my SS on the sell page for the Z06 rims <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

What tires ya gonna run?

Hey Xsta Z 28. What can you tell us about the Michelin Pilot Sports? I'd been exploring info' about them and read a bunch of positive reports on the Corvette forum but not very much on the Camaro boards. I suppose that is understandable as the focus of the Michelin's is more handling and thats more the 'Vettes relm compared to our F-bodies.

I like the Michelin Pilot Sports. Nice quality tire, some neat details too, there is a little Michelin Man climbing the side wall. Quiet on the road, handles great, straight line traction is a little compromised since they are on 18" wheels. Tread pattern is pretty cool looking. Wet driving has never bothered me, although I try not to have my car out in the rain. Price is a little steep but was one of the few manufacturers to make both 275 and 295 widths for 18 diameter wheels.

love the rims:

Going back to the Z06's ...I would highly recommend XMotorsports. They have excellent customer service and help you with whatever questions you might have! It was a pleasure doing business with them. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I bought a set from AAA rims, 17x8.5 front, 18x10.5 rear, within 6 months I started to notice the chrome beginning to bubble.
The stickers they use for center cap emblems were also coming off, I called to get them to replace the stickers, they told me it would be 40$.

I got my Y2Ks from xmotorsports about 2 years ago and they still look awesome! Great people to deal with too. They are PWO wheels though.
