Default XMS wheel from Xtreme

We know you have seen this wheel offered under a different name, but we are going through a different vendor for these. They are available in ANY color, polished and soon chrome. The difference between ours and theirs is the centercaps, the finishes we offer and the price.

Heres a couple of pics of a set we picked up today from the polishers:





Specs are as follows:
18x9.5 frts and 18x11 rears.
265/35 and 295/35/18s are the sizes for tires.
These fit perfectly with no rubbing and have close to the same offset as the Z06 wheels so they work on any C5 or Z06.
These do accept wheel sensors.
Prices are as follows:
Any color powdercoat (and I do mean any color, there are about 300 colors to choose from) with clearcoat- 1599.00
Hi Polished- 1999.00
Chrome - available soon.

Please email or call us for more info.

Those are one of my favorite designs for the C5. They look great and I like them better with the Corvette logo.

It is sad that the other Guy...charges more for the stock than you do for the polished...I guess that they were not making the wheels themselves like I thought... Thats a reallly nice wheel... and would look great in Black on a Black Vette.... :smash: :smash: :smash:


But ... can you buy them in stock sizes? I would think so since the other guy offers them that way too... otherwise... I guess I will have to give up my runflats... but I dont want to if I dont have to...

Do they have a clear coat layer on the polished aluminum, like the factory wheels? :)

Nate, I'd be interested in a set of the center caps for my Malletts, as well. How much for a set of the caps in silver powdercoat (to match the 'regular' Mallett wheels)?

BTW, did you get my e-mail regarding the gas/dead pedal installation instructions? If not, I'll re-send. Thanks!

Nate, is the inside of the wheel polished? Like the QF5's or is

They kind of look like the 547's but a closer looked revals the marked differences. So what other diffreent name do these wheels go by?

How much so they weigh? The Mallett wheels are supposedly 10 lbs. heavier *per wheel* (than the Z06 wheel).

Funny thing about the look of the Malletts was that when I still had my 2000 Coupe with the Chrome Malletts a the same time as my 2001 Roadster with the HRE 547s several people preferred the look of the Malletts. The difference between a one piece and three piece wheel gave the appearance of a larger wheel with the Malletts. :cheers:
