Default Cray Manta Wheels - Anybody got 'em??

I'm really close to pulling the trigger on these wheels.. Cray Manta Black with Polished Lip.. I'd very much like to know if other members have had a good experience with these wheels and how they feel about them on the car. They make a set that are 1/2" wider than the stock C6 rims (18x9 and 19x10.5) with a reasonably deep lip. I really like the photos, but I want to know if any owners are happy with them and it anybody has any photos of them on the car... thanks!!

I really like the look of their wheels. If you don't mind me asking what are they worth ?

I don't have these wheels but over the years there have been many posts from owners of these wheels and I do not recall any complaints from anyone.

Everybody has their own opinion about what looks good and what a reasonable price is.

My best advice is to purchase from an established, trusted Forum Vendor, if you can.

If for some unforeseen reason there is any problem, these Vendors usually do a great job of resolving the issue and stand behind their products.

Hope this helps.

they are all over eBay and I believe cheaper than 1200.. I for some reason don't like the pattern on the wheels..

I think also Discount Tire has these wheels.. You can prolly google them and find various vendors!

Good luck

I've found various vendors and some less than $1200... but I'm looking for other members who actually own them... It's cool if you don't like the wheels... I suspect somebody does and somebody has probably bought em also..... Hoping to hear from some of those folks!!. Thanks for chiming in...

I have a set of the black ones, other people love them and I get a lot of compliments on them. Sort of a PITA to clean, their also some what heavy. They came with the car when I got them, I'm sort of indifferent to them honestly.

I have a set of Cray Scorpions on the way with PS2's from my local Discount Tire. I'll report when I have them installed, hopefully next week.
