; too bad because I actually liked them a lot . So I'll have to scratch that idea - I'm needing a 10.5"+ since I'm running a wider tire.

I just paid around $2500 for wheels + tires. I ordered Forgestars and Nitto Invos. You figure what, $700 for wheels, then another $1000 for tires..you're still at $1700 at least, and that is for some basic just alright looking wheels. For another grand you get forged wheels with great tires. Say you get Forgestars..new, you're still looking at around what I paid depending on the sizes (obviously 18s are cheaper, but I prefer larger on Vettes). If it was an Fbody it'd be a little different but if you're paying the premium for a Vette (paid in your case obviously) I'd go ahead and pay the premium for the wheels personally. Even if I had to just wait and save. Your current wheels look absolutely fine, so run them and save some money for either Forgestars or CCWs or another nice wheel that comes along...might even find a nice deal while waiting.
I just wrote that forgetting you already have tires. At that, still the Forgestar CF5s which look good IMO are a very good buy for what they are. Lighter and stronger than the wheels you posted above and look great (and will be made to spec as you want). Hit up Nine Ball (forum member) and have him price you a set. No harm in just getting prices.
And I'm just thinking out loud/rambling, so don't pay me much mind.

I don't mind the rambling man lol. I do like the look of the CF5's and I'll admit the Forgestar wheels really aren't terribly priced. I woldn't feel as bad picking up a set of those as I would paying a few thousand for CCW's. I'm still looking around so if the right deal pops up then I'll jump on it. I think my problem is - I love the way numerous wheels look on the Vette so it's hard for me to pinpoint exactly what I want to invest in.
Thanks for the input man

....Maybe I should just take some of your guys advice and keep my current wheels, save up some cash, and go ahead and put my feelings behind me and buy the CCW's that I really want lol.
