Got my set of OEM's from them and I can tell you they are excellent quality. I did a core exchange.
The Z06 wheel is beautiful in chrome and only ok in stock. :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod:

Why don't you buy the chromies outright for 1450 from Corvette Mike, then turn around and sell your stock wheels on the net for about 1200-1400?
Thats what I did!

Re: Z06 chromes (KDubb)
One thing to think about:
I've been told that the chroming process (two layers on top of base) can add as much as 4 to 5 lbs per wheel of unsprung weight. They look awesome, but what's the cost in overall performance?

Provided they are in good condition and at a reasonable price.
