Default 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...

Wax after polishing I was told will not hold up for any period of time. Don't know if thats true or not............

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