This thread has examples of Showing very expensive ($1000 each) FORGELINE Forged Wheels vs $1100/set of Four
Factory Reproduction C7/Z06 wheels......

Readers need to educate themselves when looking at pictures thrown about ...comparing apples to oranges

Forged Wheel are much superior in strength/construction and very attractive but SUPER expensive
compared to the OE and replica CAST wheels....

Wont/Cant spend the HUGE money for ACE.FlowForm, HRE etc

Factory Reproductions no longer Imports, Sells the Black Chrome SPYDER

What is the budget limit when you mean "HUGE" money? That's relative person to person.

Forged Wheels are generally $3500 and UP, UP for set of Four if not higher ???
which is huge money to me..........

I'm a "cheap fxxk" who paid $36.5 for my slightly
modded, pristine conditioned old/used C-6 Grand Sport

I dont hate the OE Chrome GS wheels but think I'd rather have Black Chrome
Z06 SPYDER style wheels just to be "different".

All my research/reading tells me the Z06 BlackSpyder is no longer being mfg/imported.

I'm searching for used Blk Chrome or Powder Coated that I can have redone with PVD Black Chrome.

May have to settle for Factory Reproduction Brand (cast) C7Z06 18/19" Fittment
