Discontinued AR-205's, see my 92 in the left most picture in mys sig as well as below. I wish AR still made them. IMHO they are some of the sharpest wheels made for the Vette. If you find a supplier, please let me know.

should be able to find a wheel repair place to make them like new. I know of a metal resto shop in Mass, but it's way down in the western corner toward RI, and they do all kinds of plating and making of metal parts (usually chrome bumpers, spears, etc.)

If you can't find a wheel place, email me and I'll find the name of the shop.

I had a local body shop repair some rims for me. They build custom hearses. They did great work and the prices were reasonable. So I advise trying a local mom and pop body shop and see what they can do.
