Have not seen them in person, but I think they look great.

I have researched this extensively. I have a brand new set of 19/20's in my garage now waiting for tires. They are very good quality and look AWESOME. I am thinking about selling the 19"s to go 20" all the way around. 
If your interested let me know. They are Chrome 19X9 NEW

I have the 18/17 combo to stay with my stock Z06 rubber. They look great and the price can't be beat. I elected to get the hypersilver and polished combo. Chrome is just too bling bling for me. They are however a good bit heavier that the stock Z06 wheels.
Here is a pic or two.

Yes I will admit the Cray's are a little heavy, but I wanted the Bling bling My 19/20 combo are even heavier then the 18/19 C6 Z06's I have.
Qwkz06 did you just order OE centercaps? I want the crays off as well. Do you like it more.

Teddy, You will have an easier time finding chrome center caps than the silver ones. The e site has lots of them under corvette center caps. Cheap. Yes mines are OEM C5 ones.

Yes you are correct. I do for sure want chrome caps. Here comes that bling again. HAHA I saw them on that "e" site over the weekend and the price is right. I wanted to make sure they fit. Thanks again

If you are going with Crays go to 1010tires.com and pull their prices. After that walk into your local America's Tire and get them to price match. They will fight and come damn close. Best part is they will be local. I paid a couple hundred more then 1010tires after all the taxes but I have no beef with that.

I was somewhat interested in the wheels until hearing that. That's heavy! If I recall correctly, Tire Rack listed weights for the BBS wheels in the same sizes as 20.5 and 24 pounds. Yes, I realize that the BBSs are a 3pc. forging, which is lighter, but the BBSs are closer to the OE wheels in weight. And, the Crays are made in China. I'm not so sure I'm comfortable with that.
They do look good, however....

My rears were 29# and the front were 26#. Not light but about the same as most of the Z06 aftermarket ones. They are not 2 or 3 piece forged wheels but do look great and they are anywhere from 1/2 to 1/6the price. Plus, if you don't want to spend your life polishing wheels that is a plus. I kept the OE Z06 wheels for the track. I am interested what regular C5 wheels weigh ...NOT Z06...but regular wheels. Anybody? Thanks

I think we need to all keep in account that "you get what you pay for" I spent alittle under $2K for a 19/20 combo that is triple chrome plated. The quality looks good and I expect them to last. I also paid about $1500 for my 18/19 Ace slicks (C6 Z06 reps) They two were a great bargin for the shear size. If I wanted the "ideal" wheel I could have made that call to HRE, CCW, etc... but I simply don't have the means to spent $8K for a set of rims and tires. These are heavy, they will affect performance and are not ideal on the track. These rims are all looks and no performace.
