Never care for those ZR1 wheels. If they make you happyyua, or e good-to-go.

I know they are a bitch to clean, my DD has 20 spokes, and they stay dirty for a long time.

I dunno. Some eBay company. If I remembered who it was I would recommend them though because they were great to deal with. Lol. But I put factory c5 z06 tires on If anyone is interested I have chrome c6 z06 replicas I'm gonna be selling. A little corrosion on the inside of the wheel but not bad. Honestly those are hitting craigslist and the first 200 bucks gets them lol. But I'm very happy with the look of these. This poor car had a rough first 120,000 miles. I'm working on bringing it back to its greatness lol
