Default Has anyone ordered wheels like these?

Has anyone ordered wheels like these? I've come across more than one website with the same kind of wheels available.

I'm curious to know how "good" they are because a lot of other wheels I've come across are more than double the price they're asking for. Alomst a "too good to be true" scenario.

http://www.wheelhq.com/c6-corvette-wheels-rims.html

If you're just running across this thread and want to leave your 2 cents, please do. This would be my first time doing this kind of stuff and any help/advice would be appreciated.

Those are standard C6 design wheels. And overpriced at that. Look at forum vendors for those if thats what you want, look down the left side of the screen.

Those prices are extremely high for reproduction wheels....you can do much better with a forum vendor.

Really, the link is about $900, including shipping for a set. Someone has them for half of that?

Check with House of Wheels and our other Forum wheel vendors. These prices seem a little high to me.
