I went ahead and ordered a set of plain chrome centercaps from a seller on ebay, says they'll fit: Camaro year 2000-2002, 5 spoke and 10 spoke wheels; Corvette C5 year 1997-2004, 5 spoke wheels; and Z06 wheels year 2001-2004, 10 spoke wheels

Hoping that OE kept the same size caps as the factory spec so they'll fit, if not I guess I'll just turn around and sell em. The wheels are due in Monday (weather permitting - had a lot of snow for this part of the country lately), I'll test fit the caps when they come in later next week and report back.

 

Got the 18x9.5/18x10.5's a few days ago, can't wait to get these suckers mounted!

 

Lookin good!!!

 

and do those 18x8.5 have a polished lip or all black

 

Good deal. Sure hope they work.

 

OK.

 

Please don't tell me that car is sitting on the ground with the suspension loaded!! Needs to be lowered asap!

 

HA! No, the front was lifted. I am looking at Strano packages right now.

Finished all four calipers last night.

 

I am totally going to lose my 666 post count now...
Car looks great with the calipers painted. I forget the company that sells the overlays for the calipers but they are a great addition. I painted my calipers like this years ago. IMO two tone always looks better than all red.

 

 

drop it and then drool

 

The one thing I want to see ya'll make. the c6zo6 17x9.5/18x10.5 DD in ALL black with the rivets. I love the look of the all black but want the DD for the back with the 315's.

 

Once you get them on the car please post up some photots :

which wheel are you refering to again?

 

Stupid weather caused my wheels to be held up in Mississippi, been there since last Friday! Are the roads really that bad there??

 

18 x 8.5, 18 x 10.5 DD C6 Z06 rims w/Invo's As it sits now. HAHAH!!


6 months ago.


17x11 DD Zr1's same as sig.

 

c6z06 wheels in all black deep dish. No polished lip

 

One of the best indicators, to me, as to how well a company satisfies their customers is how they conduct themselves when something goes wrong. My rim was damaged during shipment and I called OEWheels and it was a breeze. They took care of my issue and got me rolling within a reasonable time frame. I was very happy with how they handled the situation.

Jus' my two cents. I can't wait to put on my 18" C5 Machined Black rims on this spring. Thanks OEWheels.

 

the deep dish will have a polished lip. sorry but you can not get it with out the polished lip in deep dish.

Your welcome and thanks for the comments! cant wait to see the photos

 

The wheels came in today, as well as the plain eBay centercaps that can be had for about $50 for a set (so you guys know which ones I'm referring to). I went ahead and installed the caps tonight. They BARELY fit. It's a tighter squeeze than the caps that OE includes, but it's doable if you're careful and patient. The 18x9.5s may be a slightly tighter tolerance, as they were a lil tougher to persuade on. I'm real happy with the plain centers though, and the wheel quality is excellent, despite the clowns at UPS dropkicking two of the boxes. Heres a quick pic, I'll have them on the car Tuesday-ish if the rear tires show up on time.
