"2 faced" wheels?
My C7Z06 is the 3rd vehicle that I’ve had that had differing wheels on each side. If a dealership had an inventory car with “2 faced” wheels, would you consider buying it? Presume that the different weights of the wheels was statistically insignificant.
The only downside that I can think of… is that it may be more difficult to properly rotate the tires.

This is something new I've never heard of before. You actually buy a second set of wheels just so you can have them different on each side? That seems expensive.

If you like it, more power to ya. 
To me, I'd call that a head-scratcher.

Makes absolutely NO sense to me, but it's your car.

I would consider buying it only if it had everything I wanted at a good price minus the cost for me to buy a new set of matching wheels. I like to have all four wheels match.

I don't see a problem. You can't see both sides at the same time.
