Default questions about rims....

Ok, so was browsing around the supporting vendors, and found this....

http://www.corvettegarage.com/product/z06-chrome-wheel-sale!.html

I was thinking about jumping in and ordering a set. This would alow me to have some bling to drive around for cheap, and maybe put some drag radials on the stockers for the track.

Can yall look at that and tell me what yall think?? Good deal? Hows the quality of the reproductions?

Thanks...
Scott...

I use replicas for road racing (hpde's). They have worked fine so far, but I have heard others say they have cracked on them.
