Why not try some of the forum vendors - like JW Motoring, House of Wheels, Double D Mods, Corvette Garage, HRW Motorsports, etc.

I agree, You won't find a better deal and the service after the sale is the best.

Default rims

...i'm from the tri state (jersey) and searched all the local shops around the area and the best deal i got was thru this forum from one of the vendors (saved hundreds of $'s). Prices are the cheapest and your more guaranteed to get fitment questions answered than from a shop that might have installed rims on a vette. You can't go wrong w/this forum...good luck.

Thanks, Jack!

Ricky - I sell Fikse and HRE wheels. Both companies offer the highest quality forged wheels, HRE is made in the USA, Fikse is made in Canada. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss your options, my contact information is below in my signature!
