These New Forged Custom Wheel Options for Corvette Forum Members Will Make Your Corvette Stand Out from the Crowd

Corvette Forum vendor Custom Wheels for Less has partnered with Strasse Wheels to offer aftermarket wheels to Corvette owners — specifically C6 and C7 owners. These wheels are sure to make your Corvette stand out even more than normal. And they provide a classy, understated look that’s both timeless and fresh.

These designs offer an alternative to factory wheels, as well as many popular aftermarket styles, by giving your Corvette a more focused, track-ready look. And they do so without undermining any of the Corvette’s classic styling features.

These wheels are forged for strength and feature carefully designed pocketing to reduce weight without reducing structural integrity. This allows for a very strong wheel with all of the high-performance benefits of a lightweight wheel and tire package. Alternatively, you can go wider than before with a minimal weight penalty.

The advantages of wider wheels and tires are fairly obvious for high-horsepower applications like Corvettes, and they look great too. Furthermore, reduced weight is especially beneficial when it comes to rolling stock’s inherent rotating, unsprung mass. Less rotating weight pays dividends in acceleration, handling, and braking. It’s a fantastic all-around performance upgrade, and goes great with a new set of rubber.

We’ve written about the benefits of stickier rubber before — it’s the single greatest way to improve your Corvette’s performance. Pairing stickier shoes with a one-of-a-kind set of wheels will improve your lap times, and make your Corvette more unique. What’s not to love?

Several styles, sizes, and finish options are available, meaning it’s unlikely you will ever see another Corvette running the same setup. On the other hand, if you see exactly what you want in these photos, or on another forum member’s car, the team at Custom Wheels for Less and Strasse will be happy to help.

Take a closer look at these new wheel options on our forum, and let us know what you think.
