ZR1 size or GS sized? OEM or reproductions by whom?

Interested buyers want to know.

Looks great!

Steve....
As "ALWAYS" you have a great looking car and those wheels really set it off nicely! Are you sure you aren't looking to adopt a very well behaved LEO?

Nice addition to an already stunning GS!

The ZR1 and/or Z06 spiders in chrome are the finishing touch.

Man that is sweet. Were your previous wheels painted GS wheels?

Edit: I wonder how come they don't list prices at House of Wheels website?
