Default Are these replicas

I'm new to the corvette scene. I just bought my first 02 and I was wondering if these rims

will fit, it seems like they would.

And Are they real corvette or replica?

You might want to post on the C5 forum. Some of the C6 folks might know since they owned a C5 before, but you might have better success on that forum.

Congratulations on your Vette. Any Vette is awesome. Enjoy your ride!

those are for sure replicas, factory chromed wheels were never an option. Look up Bob from House of wheels on the C5 parts for sale. his price seems like it would be alot better than what you found and he is well know and respected on the forum.

These are NOT GM wheels. Since 1953, Corvette has never has a factory "chrome" wheel.
