OE Wheels llc
Has anybody dealt with or heard of OEWheelsllc.com ?
They are based in Florida. They carry factory replacement wheels.
The chrome C5 Z06 wheels that they carry are the correct style, unlike Tireracks that are close but not the same. The center cap also has the correct flags.
I appreciate any input or feedback about this company.

I picked up my wheels from OE in person. They were very helpful and allowed me to inspect and swap out when I noticed imperfections. Keep in mind the wheels they sell are made in china and may have minor blems...or I'm just picky.

I bought a set of repo 2000 chrome thin spokes from them five years ago. After 50,000 miles and two Corvettes they still look almost brand new. I will buy from them again when I'm ready to replace these.

They are reproductions and heavier than stock, not much, but every pound of unsprung weight makes a difference to some.
I was very happy with the C6 Z06 wheels, however, I bought them from Jhonathan_W(sp?), a forum vendor here. He provides a lifetime finish warranty and lugnuts included in the sale.
Very happy with his service.

Yes I sell their wheels. Since I am a supporting vendor I do provide a good warranty and if any problems arise I step in to help with that.
I'm not knocking OE, but I saw a post the other day where a guy had a problem and didn't get much help from them direct. Don't worry about that with my company. I have a little more pull

I run repros on my car and it still feels the same.

They make some fine looking reproduction wheels and have been around for a while. Good luck with your choice of wheels.

I changed over from light weight factory magnesiums to C6 ZO6 wheels in 18 and 19 inch sizes and didnt lose a spec at the track and they feel better on the street,could be the diff from bridgestones to michelins though.

got mine from OEWheels and all went very well - love the wheels.
If I did it again though I'd buy from Jhonathan_W as he is a forum sponsor - and has great prices without having to go through EBay.

I'd also recommend you get them through Jhonathan W. Great guy to work with! The C5 deep dish wheels I bought from him were perfect!

I'll give Jhonathan another I bought C5 deep dish from him and I had some questions and he was helpful to me with no troubles and I could be wrong but I think he was just a little cheaper than going straight to OE
