Default Aftermarket wheels?

I am thinking of getting some ZO6 style wheels in Z51 fitment for my 2015 Z51 coupe. I was wondering if these $250. wheels will stand up to Rhode Island roads, worst in the nation. I have a set of ZR1 style on my C5 and they have been fine. The C5 rides much smoother than the C7 and am starting to worry if they will stand up to potholes etc. They must be cast wheels no forged. What do you think? Thanks Mike

There are many C7 owners who have bought the aftermarket Z06 Style wheels in Z51 fitment from Keith CF Member-Vendor ....
Docz-1stratecorvetteparts.

He has "the best" price points, is a straight up honest vendor, with great communication skills to his customers.

To my knowledge, every C7 CF member that has dealt with Kieth has nothing but positive remarks.

There are many threads and posts about the quality of the Factory Reproduction branded Z06 style wheels and the quality and finish.

I highly recommend these wheels and vendor (Keith Docz) over any other vendor that also sells these wheels.

Keep in mind when dealing with any vendor, CF or not, the sale and purchase is more than about price. It's about honesty, service, delivery, and communication. With Keith, you get all of these.

I suggest you visit this thread.

I bought wheels from them for my C6 and they were excellent. I'm waiting for the Grand Sport style for a Stingray and maybe I'll get them too! Here's my C6:
