Nate;

Do you still have the 18 x 10.5 Y2K repo? If so, are these available in high polish now or just paint/chrome? If not, would you be interested in trading my set of high polished original Y2K's for the XMS's?

Really pretty looking rims and great prices, too!

How muchch do they weigh? The Mallett wheels are supposedly 10 lbs. heavier *per wheel* (than the Z06 wheel).
Damn...10 Lbs.?...

How much do these babies weigh Nate?

Thanks

Nice wheels Nate! I was thinking about chrome Z06 wheels, but another player just come into the game. Decisions,decisions, what's a guy to do?
Figures, I just bought Chrome Z06's. These would have looked nice at a price I might have gone for.

Nate,

Just to throw my 2 cents in the ring. When will these be available in stock and Z06 sizes? They look great but I just bought new Yokohama rubber all around.

Thanks,
GT

Mean- Green is possible! :D

We are waiting on 17x9.5 sizes to come in. 17x9.5 and 18x11 will work perfect on the Z06. The stock Supercar tires will work as well.

There will not be a wheel size available for the stock GY runflat tires. Sorry.

Im not at Xtreme at the moment. Im not sure about the weight on these.

The centercaps are available seperately for 69.00 a set. These were not easy to make! Thanks!

Nate

Default Re: XMS wheel from Xtreme (gopherwun)

gopherwun- Im not sure where these are manufactured. They are a cast wheel. There is no issue between forged and cast.
Forged wheels are stronger and lighter.
Cast wheels are slightly heavier but just as strong. They use more metal in the spokes for strength. Thats where the extra weight comes from.
Thanks!

Nate

Hey Luvmyc5, I think you should go for these wheels, they would look great on your car. Then you could sell your existing wheels to a poor, deserving, painted wheel owner from NJ. :nopity

No problem. I re-sent you an e-mail. I'll go ahead and post here what I sent to you, as well, to make sure you get it. Thanks and Merry Christmas!

Nate,

Here's the mail that I sent to you last Wednesday. Not sure why it didn't make it.... Oh well, you know how the internet is... ;)

Anyways, my questions regarding the gas/dead pedal combo are below. I'd also like to go ahead and order a set of the C5 logo "Mallett" centercaps that you've shown on the forum. I'd like to get them in the painted silver finish. I've attached a pic of my wheels so you'll see the color and be able to do a match.

My payment information should be on file with you guys, so please use the same card that was used last time. If you need any additional information, please e-mail me or call me at 502-396-9621.

Thanks again, and Merry Christmas!

Whitney Roberts

Nate,

I've got a question regarding the gas/dead pedal set I ordered from you guys a few days ago. I got the merchandise in today, and they look great! However, they don't have any instructions or screws/springs,etc. for mounting in the car. Is there any prescribed way of replacing the dead pedal and the gas pedal?

Does the dead pedal go over the existing one, or do you take the existing one off and replace it with yours? As far as the gas pedal goes, what do I do to get the existing one off, and do I have to use anything different when putting on the new one on?

Thanks for the help!

Whitney Roberts

Hey Nate could you do 18 X 9.5 all around for a Z-28? I'd really be interested if you could.

Thanks
Joe

So how much would a set of 17x9.5 and 18x11 cost? I really like the wheels but want to keep the rears bigger than the fronts. I better start saving :D

WhitneyR-I think we can have the caps done to match, no problem.
As for the screws for the pedals, they are supplied and shipped taped to one of the pedals. Can you check again and let me know?
Our gas pedal replaces the stock one. Thanks and email me for more info.
Not sure why we didnt receive your first email...

Shadow-We sell our corvette 18x9.5s to F-body guys often. You should have no problems with the fronts, even on a lowered car. The rears may or may not require a 1/8 spacer.
We can include spacers if you decide to go for the wheels.

99-the pricing will be the same for the 17,18 combo. Im not sure when I will see the 17s come in though. The manu is out of stock at the present time.
Thanks!

Nate

I am planning on getting the Rosso 315/30/18 and 265/35/18
Has anyone had problems with the 315/30's on sticking out and roughness on an everyday driver.
Thanks

Nate,

Thanks for the reply back! I checked, and I don't have any screws taped to the back of the dead pedal or the gas pedal. Would you mind to send a set when you ship the centercaps?

I'm assuming that the gas pedal uses the same 'pin' that the stock pedal uses? I've not looked yet, just making an assumption based on what I can tell from looking at the replacement...

Thanks again!
