Seems like most of those concave style wheels don't really have any lip on them ... I guess that's why they make them concave so they at least have a little "depth" to them.

I personally like a wheel that's got a 3" or more lip ... lots of "depth" then:

Of course they look good. Stock Z06 wheels are slightly concave. I like mine. 360 Forged.

If you care about performance, get some weights on them first.


Last set I had in here on a customer's GS, in ZR1 sizes they were almost 8-10 lbs each HEAVIER than the OEM ZR1 wheels. That is comaring a non-run flat Invo on the ADV wheels to the OEM runflat's on the ZR1.

There are a ton of us who could care less about weight. Apparently, they have a track version of all their wheels. Have you weighed and tested those? I'd love to get a set of the Monoblock Adv05 wheels.

Sure, weight isn't always an issue just like not everyone is building a race car but it is something that should be thought of.


I have seen the track wheels as well, and we use what holds up the best on track.
