I have OE wheels and no problems, I've had them for about 6 years. I got mine from a forum vendor Bob's House of Wheels. Bob is great to deal with. Bill

I purchased a set of C5Z wheels I guess around 2002, picked them up at the warehouse. I've put 100k plus miles on them and they still look great. If I change anytme soon and I'd go back to EO.

Added a set of C6ZO6 wheels on my C5Z from OE Wheels. Fast shiping and a quality product. You shouldnt have any problem other than how fast you can get youre wheels mounted. I would buy another set from them no question.

I have C6Z06 replicas and they're fine.
Not serious show quality really, but they shine up real good.
Had mine about three years now; no chips, no rust.

I'm glad to see this post. I just ordered a set of DD thin spokes from OE, haven't received them yet. Hope I also have good luck with them.

I must say their prices are amazing compared to other places. Good to hear they're decent products, I am getting tired of my think spokes and was looking at something different.

I got mine from JW Motoring price was great and they are lighter the everyone on the forum was saying they were. The 19x10 C6 5 spoke weights 28lbs I was told anywhere from 30-36 lbs.

i've heard good things about them... now if we could only get them to offer a deep dish c5z wheel, seeing that they have reproduced nearly every other factory corvette wheel from the past 10 years or so

We've been selling them a little under 3 years now. They offer the highest quality reproduction wheel on the market.

ordered my C6 Z06 Deep Dish's from keith at 1st rate corvette. Really nice guy to deal with...not hassles at all. I ran into a small problem with the order, however it was cleared up very quickly. Shipping was top notch with no problems with the wheels when they came in. I just got the tires mounted on them so im gonna try and get some pics up soon. My hats off to keith down at 1st rate. Really nice guy to deal with and doesnt mess around. Bump for a nice product and good quality.
