Best wheels option for C7 Z06
I am trying to get a line on parts and prices for once we pick up a C7Z in the next 2-3 months. With that what are some decent but affordable wheel options for the C7Z? I was going to use the HRE Flow Form series but they dont offer them in the C7Z sizes. I am considering the BC Forged line and maybe the Forgeline brand. Was really hoping to keep the replacements under the $4k range if at all possible. Any suggestions for some other reputable brands that you all can share with me?

We offer these wheels. Lot of happy Z06/Grand Sport owners in here that replaced their cracked OEM wheels with this.

You have a "local" vendor in Texas, finspeed.com, and I believe they have a sale underway at present. A set for your Z06 won't be under $4K but their wheels are excellent quality and less expensive than many of the other brand name forged wheels. And they'll build them to your specs if you have specific requirements (as I did) and their customer service is exceptional. I have a set for my Z06 and the wheels are terrific both in appearance and performance.

Trying to keep your cost under $4k, don't fall for the ole' "spun forged" wheels. That's what the OEM wheels are...and they are not true forged wheels. You want monobloc forged, or you might as well keep the OEM wheels.

There is right areas to try and reduce weight and wrong areas, seems the manufacture went the wrong way on their choice.

I just got a set of Forgestars and I'm very happy with them.

@TJay74 I just purchased some BC Forged wheels for $3250 shipped, brand new from a vendor. If you want information about that, PM me. I'll be happy to help a former 6th gen SS 1LE owner, like myself, out with such an endeavor.
