Cheap eBay rims?
Has anyone purchased rims from o.e. wheels on eBay? How did they work out? The prices seem way cheap. What about their wheel/tire combinations?

I bought polished aluminum, 17x9.5 ZR1 wheels from OE on eBay. They came with wheel locks, lug nuts, and chrome valve stems, and center caps. Well worth it in my opinion! 500 dollars for all 4, shipping was quick, good packaging, no problems! They are overseas made, there was a stamp on the inside with Asian lettering. I don't road, or drag race, or do autocross. I just drive my car normally, so it was good for me. I just switched my like new BFG gforce T/a's over to them. We'll only see if they stand the test of time, in the meantime, I'll take good care of them. See "My Corvette Photos" to see them...
