Those wheels are different than the factory design. They have a deeper lip and wider spokes. I like it from the looks of the ebay ad. I would like to see a set on a car though. Also, I've always been concerned with the quality of wheels from manufacturers with which I'm not familiar.

Default OE Concepts

I have a set of chrome Z06 style wheels manufactured by OE Concepts I purchased from Corvettes of Houston 3 1/2 yrs ago and have had no problems. They may be a little heavier than stock wheels but they look very nice and perform well. If you are looking to add a little bling they are a good bargain for the buck.

They look like C-4 wheels you see on some ZR1's.
