Give us a call we have many options for your vette. You will want to go with a forged wheel for weight savings and also concavity. For the lightest wheel you want a monoforged concave, but you wont get a lip. We have concave wheels available with race prep that will give you a lip as well as the concave profile you desire.

That's not a problem. We just make a forged monoblock wheel. Simple as that.

z force are indeed heavy chinese wheels that don't look right on most C6's. If you want cheap but good looking wheels for the money look at the forgestar serries from Iforged.

You might want to check CCW wheels. I've owned several sets and I've been very pleased with them. They're quality, made in the USA wheels at a 'reasonable' price....not cheap but not HRE expensive either. When you talk with CCW you're not just speaking to a vendor, you're dealing directly with the manufacturer. The vast popularity of CCW wheels amongst Corvette racers is IMO indicative of their quality, aesthetic appeal and price point.
