I wouldn't trust them to be made in the USA for that price. Best to spend extra and get the ones made here. Too many quality issues with the ones made in China and Taiwan.

I got my Chromies for just under $700 out the door, including install and balance. I thought about getting cheap repos, but I felt shady getting them for so cheap. Can't go wrong with OEM with triple plating.

Wow! $700 sounds pretty cheap to me. Where did you get them? Were they OEM?

I was just looking at their website and he stated they were manufactured in Colorado. I'm thinking of going with them.

Re: Chrome Rims (SunSnare74to83)
I got mine through West Coast Corvette, they do a super job of plating OEM wheels - that way you are not picking up extra weight. They mail you the chromed wheels, you pay a core and that is refunded when they get your old ones (in good shape of course). Good company, I am very pleased.
Personally I would avoid repro's.

My chrome Z06 wheels were bought from one of out forum vendor and are made by O.E. Concepts. Inside each wheels was a sticker "MADE IN CHINA".
