New wheels - shout out to Gerry at CW4L

Lookie at what came today thanks to Gerry at CW4L. Forgeline VX1s with AS3+ tires. These are finished in Carbon Flash with custom Z06 center caps. I can't say enough about the fantastic customer service that Gerry provides aand would recommend him to anyone looking for custom wheels. Can't wait to get these on the car. Thanks Gerry!

Jelly. Ordered the same ones (minus the caps), ETA 2-3 weeks...

EDIT: Those might be the best pics of their carbon flash finish I've seen. It was a tough choice, but I wouldn't have taken so long if I saw those first.

That color will look fantastic. I didn't have a choice on color since I bought these from a generous forum member, but if I had, I would have picked what you got. Going to look great.

Fronts 4-5 lbs less per wheel
Rears are 8-10 lbs less per wheel

And Strength 8-10x Stronger Forged vs OEM Cast!

Any questions call/text 440-915-6166

I got my VX1s from Gerry as well - mounted & balanced just like these but with the MPSS instead. Love the wheels and the service I got from Gerry!

The Carbon Flash looks great - they'll look even better on your car.

VX1s in carbon flash installed! Looks amazing. Tried to get an angle capturing the wheels compared to the carbon flash aero and visible carbon side skirts. Hardly any difference between Gerry's CF powder coating and OEM. I picked the right color for sure.
