For those looking for wheels check out www.NOT-A-SPONSOR.com.org.gov.net.edu. They offer some styles and sizes that OE doesn't. A bit higher in $$ but still well worth it. Especially if your in to ZR1's they have an awesome set of black(ive owned a set). Be sure to look to the right on the site and click on Corvette in the "Specials"

Normally they don't go out of stock on everything like that. If you read back (back back lol) they had an ordering mishap which basically made them run out of the vette wheels. Not typical, thankfully.

I'm just not buying wheels this year. Kinda sucks but whatever. I ended up needing the money for other things anyway. Next year.

Somehow they blocked a web address that I posted about where you can purchase wheels for your 4th Gen or any other vehicle also. Styles, finishes and sizes that OEWheels doesn't offer. Since they are that obsessed with blocking it from everyone while they cant even keep up with demand just shoot me a message and I will be glad to email the address to you. One car lover for others****

Looks like they have been out of stock for months, have they been discontinued? I mean its been a long time, I am starting to lose faith and look for other wheels.

I need to know that if I buy these wheels and I blow one or bend it, that I can get a replacement fast and not have to wait 8 months for the wheel. Right now, its seems if I buy a set and something happens I am fucked.
We have been getting the c6 z06 wheels in deep dish with rivets back in stock as of last week. what finish and size are you lookin for?

very nice, are these wheels original equipment or reproductions? I was wanting to get these for my 98 but I heard they might rub, also I'm running the same size tire front and rear but I'm considering 18x9.5 in front with with 275/35x18 and 18x10.5 on the rear with 295/35x18. Any info or advice would be helpful....what size wheels front and rear, any spacer needed?

that's purdy. these look so good in 18/19 inch. I wish they looked that good in 17's. I have 4 brand new 17 in tires and will be buying a new set of OE wheels, I just can't decide which ones...this may have made my mind.

Recently bought C6 Grand Sport wheels for my 98 Firebird. I've heard mix thoughts about them, but I personally think they look amazing!

Do the 18x10.5 C6 Z06s (non deep dish) not come in black? I see them for every color including black with the red stripe but no all black. Whats up with that?

Can you post more pics of these on your car? I have a black SS that I considered putting these on. I even started a thread last week about these.
