JDM--are these yours? I've seen them on another thread, and tried researching for prices and where to buy, but not much luck.
I think these are amazing!

I like some of Chips wheels as well and have priced them and they are not to expensive when I priced them out.

I think you might want to do your homework on the Nitrous wheels as everyone I have talked says the Nitrous will not fit a Vette. Could be bad info but Id hate for you to buy them and find out they wont fit.

Good luck in your purchase.
