Default OE Concepts Wheels

Anyone have these? How do you like them?

My local Corvette place has OE Concepts available in chrome thinspoke, C5 Z06 or C6 style for $1,200 installed. Price doesn't seem to bad for repros, just wondering if anyone has these and how they are holding up.

Some people hate them, an awful lot have had good luck with after market wheels.
Check out house of wheels and tomzz for better pricing though.

Search the forum and you will find much discussion on these. At the end of last year, I bought a set(4) of C5 Z06 Motorsport wheels from TomZWheels for a sale price of $399 delivered. I have not had a chance to get them on the car yet, but they are beautiful wheels. The main knock on them is they weigh a little more.

If that is the place out of Sarastosa FL from fleebay, I don't like them. They won't give you tracking numbers, and their customer service is . The wheels are cheap; I got some wheels for my stang, and the clear coar in one of them is peeling , and I havent had those wheels for a year yet .

$1200???!!! I sure hope that includes the tires too!!!! Thats what i paid for mine with Kuhmo tires, balanced, lugs and shipped!

The repro wheels are fine, no quality issues, just have to get some real centercaps for them. they come with plastic chrome blanks with no color on the flags...

I have OE Concept chrome wheels on my car and they look great. I didn't give anywhere near that kind of money for them.

Default Thanks for the Replies

Thanks for the info guys. I guess that price is a little high. I will get some wheels and find another shop to swap the tires.
