I thought those wheels looked familiar. That car looks sick with those rims on it. Can't wait to see some pics of it with the top down.

If you do sell your old wheels and tires, i'd be very interested in the wheels. Maybe the tires too if you don't want to separate.

Let me know how much you are looking to get.

Hey, I have a question...would these be the same size and fit for a C5? I'm just curious; they used to be big in the BMW community.

In that case, you must donate them to me....JK. That would make another non-forged optioin for the Vette. If they only could be found in Chrome.

edit: What size are they and how big are the tires?

edit #2: I just read the sizes.
