I was gonna pull the trigger on some black GS wheels when I saw these. I'll now be waiting until they are released!

Any update on these wheels?

Also, will they be made in C5 offsets?

I would never buy repro wheels to put on a vette. But you guys go ahead!

Since I am looking for a slightly more aggressive stance than stock for my C6 coupe, I asked about the offsets and was told that they would only be available in original stock offsets.

Well, whenever they eventually release them, I'm excited. I loved my black Spyders, and I think I'll love the black Cup's even more!

And that silver set is the first one of the Cup wheel I've seen like it, yet. I dig it!

Vertical Doors ZLR kit installed on my Z06

I bet that gets a lot of attention....Looks good..I like the way those doors open.
...but you'd put reproduction Lambo doors on it.

Where does that quote say I'd ever put lambo doors on my car? Hate that you wasted all that time searching through my old posts.....nice try bud.

Most reproductions look cheap and are heavy....just the way it is.
