Default Cray wheels

Has anyone installed 18"/19" Manta Cray wheels on their car? If so, are you happy with them and do you have any pics?

I have the 18/19 Scorpion Crays on my 2001 Coupe. I am very pleased with them.

The Cray wheels are great quality and you will be very happy with them
One thing to note is they are heavier than stock and this is a turn off for alot of people. If weight is not an issue then from a quality standpoint you would be happy with them. Cray is made by TSW are are Corvette specific on offsets ect. TSW also makes 2 more whees in correct sizes and bolt patterns for you
The Interlagos and the Nurburgring. These are alot lighter in weight(23lb avg. vs 30lb on CRAY)


I have some pics of Manta on customers cars but they are on my compter at the shop.
What color is your car?

I have the TSW on sale this month as well.

Which finish are you looking for on the Cray?
a painted non chrome I can do the same price as the TSW wheels shown on special. Just call or PM to order at that pricing

Don't have the Crays on my car, but have talked to several people that have them on theirs and they like the wheels. Looks good, fit is perfect and they balance out just right.

I have 18/19s Chrome Cray Scorpions on mine. Dennis (C5BersFan) sold me my set.

I fitted Toyo TR1s but I made the mistake of lowering the profile. I wanted to fill out the wheel arches but succeded in making it look the same as stock.

Very happy so far. The quality is good and I love the look.

They'll take the OEM C5 center caps if that worries people.

Thanks to everyone for the prompt replies, much appreciated. My car is a silver 02Z and my concern was the front width of the Crays being 9" as the oem is 9.5", if anything I wanted to go with at least the stock width or even 10" but I figured the slight negative offset of the Crays may compensate for the 1/2 inch difference, would that be a correct assumption?
