Concept One CS5.0
I'm a little surprised I haven't seen anyone on here with these rims yet.

Is it that they're 20s all around? I really like the concave look and you can get the rears in 10.5's. What's the deal, am I missing something?

The descriptions are conflicting.
If the 20x9" -35mm and 20x10.5"- 45mm dimensions are correct, they'll stick out of the fenders about 1/2" front and rear.
If the 20x9" -18mm and 20x11" -25mm dimensions are correct, they'll stick out about an inch in the front, 1.5" out of the rear fenders.
In either case, no thanks.

with both the above - and also something about the looks of the center area of the wheel just doesn't appeal to me.

The advertisement doesn't provide a weight of the wheels and we all know you can't determine the weight by looking. OEM ZO6 wheels are some of the lightest wheels period and are spun cast IIRC. The design is questionable. They look like TSW wheels IMO. Not a fan of 20s on Corvettes.

They're nice looking wheels, but their ad has a few contradictions:
1. The 20x11 rears are 10.5"
2. They say they're for a C5 but only show pix on a C6
3. Offsets are 18 & 25mm in one place but 35 & 45mm in another.
4. No weight specified, which usually means heavy, particularly considering a 20" diameter.
5. Undoubtedly NOT made in the
