CCw 505a wheels
Where do I find them? How much are they? These are the best looking wheels I've seen on a vette, IMO.

Ask for John (the owner) if he isn't there, ask for Chip.

I just bought a set of the 505a's and a set of the drag pak classics. CCW is a great company to buy from.

CCW wheels are great, and Chip and John give very good customer service. I personally went with the SP16's but the 505A is a beautiful wheel too.
One word of advice, you might want to check into getting them chromed...the polished aluminum finish they come in is beautiful, but a REAL PITA to keep clean. This is my only regret buying CCW wheels,,otherwise I love them

CCw 505A's are easier to clean if you use some Zaino after you clean them...

They are beautiful wheels. You can also get them from West Coast Corvettes.
