Has this wheel in black, chrome, hyper black, black chrome, machine black from 17X8.5-19X10.....sure they are a little more expensive but damn you can't atleast get the color and sizing you want for the most part.



OEWheelsLLC I'm disappointed

i don't think its fair that everyone crucify OEwheels for bringing this product out,even if its not exactly what some people may want right now. They are just releasing a new product, I'm sure they didn't want to get in over their heads and make many different sizes and never sell certain ones. Coming from a self owned small business family my self, i know that pushing certain products can be very hard and demanding on a company. I say give them some more time and you will get the product you want.

PS: ordering some chrome c6 z06 18x9.5 wheels either tonight or tomorrow!!

1st off, no dissrespect to you and please don't take this in a negative manner. This is my opinion and I'm not trying to be a dick...

You have a (limited)point about gettign them widened and I wouldn't say folks are ungratefull....however, they talked about these years ago and promised they were coming. I see it as more of a "hey we finaly offer them, but only in the sizes/finishes we can get, not the ones we discussed way back when".

If your going to order a new set of wheels why would you want to have them cut and widened? Order what you want th first time.

Not that I'm aware of. maybe you were looking at a different finish or a combo with a staggered size or something?

I remember everyone wanting a 17x11 z06 wheel and we were so close to getting one, then we were told no, cause Oewheels has to make wheels for many different types of cars. So instead of getting a wheel that was in high demand, you make a wheel specifically for corvettes and f body's, that's in a size no one would spend a dime on. I don't understand?

Why don't you buy a brand new set of wheels just to turn around and pay to get them widened

I understand what your saying, and I wasn't trying to be harsh In my post I really wasn't I even said that. But, why not spend the development money on something people have been pounding drums about that you know will sell, rather than come out with something that will have mixed reception. Just seems backwards

Come out with something you know there is a demand for -- make money
Come out with something you will have to feel the market with -- maybe make money

Then you talk about how hard it is to develop new products and then produce the first run to not know if it's going to do well... wouldn't that be more of a reason to make sure you get it right the first time?? We have been begging for the Deep Dish C6 Zr1 and Spyders wheels for a couple years now.

I'm not trying to be unreasonable or disrespectful or anything of the sort, I just felt mislead by all this, only for the product to have shifted and be no where near what I was waiting for... oh well I'll just have to go a different direction now.

Well unfortunately looks like I'm not pulling the trigger on these. A set of 17's or 18's with the deep dish for the rear would make you guys a TON of more money then what you decided to offer, 6le has had these similar wheels and sizes for awhile.

I don't think anybody is trying to bash OEwheels, but they've been around long enough to know what we like and what we'd buy. Honestly, deep dish combos in 17 and 18s for these would just sell, plain and simple, the demand is just simply awesome, people want something different, thats where the wider wheels and deep dish comes to play.

17's also sell good as a lot of us don't want to spend a fortune on tires, being deep dish you can't rotate.

I mean look how good the older zr1 ones have sold in the deep dish offerings, it only makes sense that these would possibly even better, the demand is here, all you have to do is produce them, and watch the sales sky rocket, I feel that you guys simply don't listen to us, the 17x11 in deep dish for the c5 wheel we wanted, I think you guys missed a ton of money on that wheel as well.

We want the product, you want sales, it only makes sense as a business and company to produce the deep dish, I want wheels and my only real option is the older zr1s.
