I just couldn't remember who made them and who sells them.
What wheels are these ???

Actually those are referred to as the Z07 rims and for the life of me I cannot think of the vendors name. The forum member by the name MSG C5 will probably chime in as he was recently running that set up.

Those are what are known as Ace "Slicks" by some. They are offered in silver (hyperblack) and chrome. The C5 logos are decals. They are patterned after the C6 Z06 style wheel but are a little different.
Several vendors sell them. Corvette Garage is one. Search Ace SLICK and check web images.
Nate sells them under the "Z07" name.

I've seen those advertised by Corvette Garage for a number of years. Great looking wheels.

Last year when I was looking at new rims it was a toss up between the C6Z06 replicas and the Ace Slicks, but I likes them both equally so the deciding factor was simply the price.
