If you are going to purchase those wheels and have the competition grey wheels that came on the C-6 as an $295 option I might be interested in purchasing them off of you if they are in great shape

comp gray
From the factory as an order option it is $295 but if you buy them not already on the car from the factory that is what I want to know...alot more than $295 probably like the rest of the wheels 400 to 500 a piece?
I would not put those on my Corvette.

However, the offsets show that they are intended for C5. Also, they don't list weight anywhere.
They have a full-page ad in the latest Corvette Magazine, so it looks like they are intending a big product push. The parent company is TSW.

How about these on C6 VRed coupe. I really am looking for opinions... Haven't seen a pic of these on a car yet. I've ordered the stock wheels and changing them b4 I take delivery. Offset looks ok too...

Those look pretty sweet cthusker. I think Victory Red is one of the few colors that look really great with the competition OEM grey wheels. Of course they look really great with the OEM polished wheels too, so these "radical wheels" should look pretty tight as well. I would not have the OEM silver wheels on the VR Coupe though, either the comp grey or the polished, just personal preference. So I guess if I was in your same situation I'd pay the extra $395 for the comp grey wheels even if I planned to take them off....I'd prefer to have a set of backup wheels that looked good to my eye or as track wheels.
