Default Updated my 2015 five spokes

Decided to update my 2015 Stingray (Non Z51) from five spoke wheels to the Z06 style wheels. I really liked the Z06 wheel when it came out. Corvette decided to go to the 10 spoke wheels for the base stingray in 2016 and are staying with them. Keith at DOCZ beat everyone's price and provided great customer service. I think the Z06 style wheel (Factory Reproductions Brand) is a big upgrade from the five spokes.

Looks great and good choice!! Upgraded my 2015 also, but to the Z51 wheels. Anything is better than those 5 spokes.

I also like the Z51 wheel, it was a hard choice between the Z51 wheel and the Z06 wheel. Looks like Corvette had abandoned the 5 spoke wheel.

I also bought the Z06 reproduction wheels from DocZ. And they are a great looking addition. I went with chrome. Congrats and they look great
