Well, I think it's great when "manufacturers" try to give us new products but I think, sometimes, they try TOO hard to be ....er, different!
It's a tough business..........

Wouldn't be a bad looking wheel if it didn't have that goofy red spoke

The red spoke just looks odd...both standing still and moving. I wouldn't put it on any vehicle I own but especially a Corvette.

The wheels on my car are 20's rear and 19's front. 2000.00 each for the rear and 1800.00 each for the front. Personally I am very happy with them.

Those wheels are NICE.
Their Web Site, while being quite stylish, is lacking in useful information.
For instance they provide selects for OEM front and rear wheels, but the page you get is the same for front and rear listing several 19 inch wheels, which is not an OEM size for either front or rear of a C5? Curious.
