Default Help get the Machined face C5 DD get made!

Ok so it was announced that only 3 pre-orders for the machine faced C5 DD in 18x9.5 were taken.

If they dont get many more they wont make it!

I was really hoping to get a set too.

So I ask you guys consider pre-ordering this style!

I'd like it if they guys who have them already in a different combo please chime in and show off your pics of them!

I'm one of the 3 and I may back out, not sure yet, as I really want C5 Z06 wheels that are machined faced with black vents and I may have found a set.

Seriously? You're jumping ship on me?

I suppose I could get the black with machined lip but the machine faced once are just different and I like them better.

Or I could hold out for some CCW 505a's. But damn.

I'm not 100% sure if I'm jumping ship or not, but i"ll know tomorrow for sure. Do they not have any 17*9 or 18*10.5's in the machined face with black vents?

They do make a MF in 17x9.5 but I dont like look of staggered wheels on f-bodies (works for vettes). I like the idea of less lip in the front so i dont wanna do 18x10.5 all around.

We are going to push through a special run of 40-60 pcs of the 18x9.5 C5 Style Deep Dish Machine Face Black. The factory agreed to slip them in the next production run which is around 90 days or so. I sure hope enough of you guys sign up for them in the mean while or I may be walking the streets.

These are the exact wheels I'm saving money for right now, I just havent got around to preordering them, I dont have the money to buy them yet. Does money need to get put down? and will this bump back the release date at all?

I got a photoshop with the wheels. I love it

We have 17x9.5 / 18x10.5 in Machine Face Deep Dish C5 Style right now. Since demand was low we were going to cut out this finish on the 18x9.5, but the factory did us a favor of a very small run. They are just pushed out 90+ days. The other finishes that will be here soon are in the 18x9.5 thread.

Here's a link to the 18x9.5 C5 deep Dish thread with all the ETAs.

Here is a link to what we have available now -

I might jump on board when the funds are there. I have 17x8.5 fronts now but I think a rim is bent, and I wanted the DD anyway.
