Default Hyper Silver Dark Wheels

I came across these wheels through searching and wanted to know if anyone knows where I might be able to get a set. Check post# 5 in this thread for a pic:

I've tried both the vendors listed and one can no longer sell them due to warranty issues with their supplier and the other doesn't have any and came across as sketchy on the phone. I'm looking to for a set in standard Z06 sizes.

Are you sure you're talking about hyper silver, or are you discussing black chrome? If the latter, did you see this further down on Gen?

Definitely Hyper Silver. I'm trying to get away from the flash of chrome in any hue or tint. The Hyper Silver has a satin finish look that is more subdued.

Those wheels are Verde Custom Wheels. They are hyper-black.

Correct, and Verde doesn't have any and didn't sound like they were able to get any.

from what i've heard, they had quality control issues with the finish and are no longer available.

it's a shame because they are beautiful in person.

my wheels came with a couple of nicks that shouldn't have been there (being brand new and all), but they still look really good.
