Does anyone know who makes these thin spokes replicas? Nothing on the back that really tells anything..
Haven't seen any that look like this on the back
If you have the same wheels with the CORVETTE logo on one spoke on the front of the wheel and there is no GM markings on the back side they ARE NOT original from the factory. They are aftermarket clones.
Factory C5 wheels have pin etched or cast in GM logo, part identification and wheel sizing on the back side of the spokes. There were two variations of the same thin spoke design from GM. One is forged (has the pin etching info) and the other is spun cast (has the cast info).
:agree: These are my originals - (one version of the originals).
I've seen 2 of the pin stamped thin spoke forged wheels crack across the spoke causing air loss. Both were rears off of 2 different cars, cracked in the same spot!
