Default Rims on E-Bay...Any1 have these ?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=43957

These are rims I was considering for my 1990 Metallic Charcoal Grey Vet. Does anyone have these rims or has anyone delt with this seller ? I'm trying to find out quality of these before I go any further.
Or any suggestions on other rims that may look good on this color car ?

Thanks...Ron

I was looking at his "other" items (wheels) for sale. He does *seem* to have some pretty good prices.

$490 for a set of ZO6 wheels?

Almost too good...

If you check back a few days there was a thread pertaining to O.E. Specialties, (moore9911) Almost everybody liked their wheels. I just bought a set of the same wheels but in chrome for $550. They are simply beautiful and this price for these wheels is unmatched anywhere. Go for "em, they're a great bargain and a great wheel. Also, nobody else gives you new lugnuts and locks with the deal.

I bought my polished Z06 wheels from them. Excellent wheels and excellent delivery time.

I got the chrome ones just like those from them and am very pleased. O.E. Distributors ROCKS!! At least I had a good transaction with them.

Yep- bought my polished C5's from them for $365 + shipping included chrome lugs, locks and stems...the rims are very nice! Check them out...



Fast shipping, and little tire weights to balance!


They get my vote!

get the 17 x 9.5' s for front and 17 x 11's in rear so you can put 315's on the back. I'll bet this seller has this combo if you email them.

Another recommendation for them. I bought mine from them for 450.00 including shipping (the ZR1 style). Arrived within the 2 weeks just like the ebay ad stated and the wheels are very nice quality. They also balanced with no problems on my 92 Vette. I would definitely buy from them again. I think you would be very suprised at the quality of the wheels for the price.

Good luck!

You won't go wrong buying from them whichever rim you pick. I bought silver Zr1 wheels and they are great for the price. They are honest and dependable, no problems.

I got a set of Z06 argents from them. Took just under 2 weeks to get. Included all new lugs, locks, valve stems. Can't beat the price at $420 just gets you on shipping at $120 but still !!!

Just looking for a shop to remount my tires. Most shops either want to sell you tire or the rims and wont touch it otherwise.

Thanks! Believe it or not- they are all 17 x 8.5!!! I was nervous about putting an 8.5 on the rear, but they don't sit inward as I thought they might..they are right where my 9.5 I took off were...I even put 275 40 zr 17's on them...my tire guy said no problems at all! Just rotate them regularly! I will post a side shot so you can see what I mean about the rears...

I love the rims!
