Comes down to the shop and their equipment. If we have a client who doesn't have a local high end wheel shop with a touchless mounting system, we will do what we can to get them a wheel/tire package direct from us.

It's our standard silver, available in matte or gloss - The wheels shown have a matte face with gloss lips. All of our wheels are powdercoated

Hello Incurve Forged Wheels. According to my humble opinion wheel manufactures need to stop trying to put the largest wheel size they can fit to a car on it. We all already know that 20/21 rims with 285/375 tires will fit on base or Z51 C7 vettes. So why not build 19/20 rims that would fit standard size C7 Zo6 tires, 285/335? The 20/21 tire selection is a severely limited market. If you did it this way quality factory sized tires, of different manufacture and different specs, could be sourced from different vendors for more competitive prices. 18"/19" wheel sets could and should be sized to fit stock C7 tire sizes or sized to fit C6 size Zo6 style tires (275/325 18/19). If you would build wheels for factory sized tires, seems like you could add a bit more concave or dish, resulting in a better looking wheel. What say you, sir?

Thanks for your post.
Our forged wheels are 100% made to order and we offer 18", 19", 20", 21", 22", 24" and 26" size, with widths from 7" up to 15". We can build as extreme as you want or as conservative as you want. We build MANY sets of wheels to OEM spec whether it be Offset; Width or diameter to utilize OEM tire sizes, you name it!
The amount of concave and lip size is limited due to the C7 itself, not the wheels. The vehicle is very high offset and does not allow for that big lip look or deep concave. We do offer a Medium Concave profile which is essentially a light concave with leg extensions to give it the deep concave look, a great option. Give us a z06 no problem or widebody the C7 and we will show you a set of wheels like you've never seen There is a lot that goes on behind the scenes of building a wheel and every part of the vehicle is taken into account. If you have any questions or ideas you'd like to bounce off of me, feel free to e-mail me: info@incurvewheels.com - Every e-mail goes directly to me
