Default Corvette Garage Z07 wheel in HyperBlack finish available...










Now available in Hyper Black finish in sizes 18x9.5 and 18x11s. The color is black, gray and bright silver, done in a 2 stage paint process.
I have included many pictures but I dont think pics show the finish well. Flat surfaces of the wheel look bright silver, rounded or curved surfaces look much darker and almost black in places.
Hyper Blacks are introductory priced for a limited time at 995.00 per set with centercaps.

Chromes are special priced at 1299.00 for a limited time.

We have tires and sensors available ready for C5 or Z06 packages.

Custom colors for those interested are available. Powdercoating will add roughly 250.00 to the cost.

Please call or email Chris (Chris@corvettegarage.com) for more info. Im having a hard time keeping up with email or IMs, so please contact Chris for more info or to order.
Thank you,

Nate

I weighed a few different wheels we had here for comparison.

18x9.5 chrome (not painted) Z07 wheel- 24lbs each
Painted Z07 wheel will weigh slightly less.
18x9.5 GM painted 1999 wheel- 21lbs each
18x9.5 chrome reproduction Z06 wheel- 26lbs each
18x9.5 painted Mallet 396 wheel- 24lbs each
18x8.5 GM polished C6 wheel- 22lbs each (1 inch narrower than the rest.)

Okay, lets compare regular non runflat tires to EMT runflats:

Goodyear Supercar 265/40/17- 22lbs each
Goodyear EMT 245/45/17- 26lbs each (1 inch narrower than the Supercar.)

4lbs minimum difference between a runflat and non runflat! That should make up the difference in weight gain by running a heavier wheel.
Thanks,

Nate

I posted in this thread before complementing the nice look on the wheels and asked a question if you ship to Sweden ? why is that post deleted i see several other posts complementing the wheels which isnt deleted ?
Do you have something against Swedes/Sweden ?
So one more time do you ship this wonderful wheels to Sweden or are we excluded ?

Thanx in advance and the text above isnt meant to be offending i just want an answer and remember that english isnt my first lang. before you bash my skills in your language.

Hmm, we (as members), cannot delete other members posts or replies, only you or the moderators of this forum can.

Yes, we ship to Sweden and all over the world. Go to the Fedex website and use our zip code (79414) to figure shipping costs. We ship 2 wheels per box, 2 boxes total, @ 60lbs per box.
Thank you,

Nate

Kevin[/QUOTE]

there are 4 total boxes, each wheel is in it's own box. 2 of the boxes are tie wrapped together making 1 box for shipping. at least this is how i received mine.
