C5 replica wheels on Ebay?
Has anyone purchased these, or know someone who has. They are replicas of the y2k C5 wheels in chrome , they come in the same 17 - 18 sizing and will support the pressure sensors.
They sell for about $750 for the set of 4, and that just seemed awful cheap to me, is there something to them Im not seeing. Because if not I plan to buy a set.

You can sometimes get a really good deal on e-bay. I would want to know who makes the wheels, where they are made, and what warranty comes with them. Finally, try to find out what you have to do if you have a warranty problem. Good luck.

I bought my zo6 chrome wheels from corvettes of houston. They are from o.e concepts also. They do fit the sensors and they are really nice. I think I paid 710.00 or so. ...corvette of houston are great people.
