For a few hundred more, I'm going with a tried and true, well-known company like Vossen. I also like their wheels better anyway. I'll probably get flamed by Aerolarri believers, but that's just my personal take.
for a vossen true forge wheel there evo series you will pay 3x the price and wait longer for a wheel that can not be made as custom or in as many different sizes. More money for less does not sound like a corvette guy.

My custom 2 piece, Step lip, with "overspoke" Vector wheels was just built. This is my 2nd wheelset from Aerolarri. I wanted a 2 piece step lip wheel but did not want the center spokes ending at the mounting point. This overspoke design gives the wheels a very unique look. Chet designed these for me. It is now available for anybody that wants it since he already has the CAD file from my order.
The specs of my wheels are:
20x9.5 and 21x12
Brushed Graphene glaze centers
Polished barrels
C8 Stingray offset

Zoomtt, You Chet did a great design! I always like wheels with a deep lip however I could not find the right wheel that looked right with the C8 offset when I was looking. You guys took a very popular Aerolarri wheel that works on the C8 and made it a 2 pc which is awesome IMO! I ended up with getting the Aerolarri Hypernova wheel which I get complimented on all the time!

I had numerous aftermarket wheels on all my past Corvette’s.

Aerolarri wheels are the best wheels for the money period!

Wow, that looks great! I really like how that step works. Can't wait to see them on your C8. Didn't realize Chet would design a unique wheel for customers. I have an idea for a wheel so I'll see what he can do.

Default Finally placed my order

I finally placed my order. Fusion 20x9.5 & 21x12 in sapphire blue glaze to go on my CMG coupe. Want a second set in different style for track work, but have to save up again. Changed from thresher at last minute. Dang!

Always hear some see a tint of blue in the CMG, so, let’s see how these do.

Not sure if lowering or not, but I have the paragon lowering spacer things.

Would love feedback and pics of these Tire figments. 265/30/20 front & 325/25/21

Any input or helpful tips?

Vehicle is built...hope to have it home soon. Wheels are shipped...it might be a while via "ship" but they will get here and I couldn't be more excited. Tires were ordered from Tirerack and have been in the garage just waiting patiently.

I'll give a final review once I get the product in hand, but so far, the experience with Aerolarri has been great! 20x9.5, 21x12, TeraLaunch Wheels in Pale Ale Gold Brush!

They do still offer the pale ale gold. Brushed or polished, and the brushed is a glaze finish. I’ll post pics once they are on the vehicle. If I can get some of them in the sunlight I’ll take some as well.

Wheels have reached ashore and are on the way, arriving Monday...can't wait. Car goes into get ppf and ceramic coated and wheels and calipers ceramic coated by the end of next week. I haven't taken delivery yet, but timing wise, this is all coming together nicely!!

I made that mistake. I was told by the dealership that my car was being delivered end of March 2023. I placed the C8 order towards the end of Jan. 2023. I wasn't sure if the car would be delivered on time, so I waited to when they gave me heads notice of delivery once it got closer. Once that happened on 3/29/23, I shortly after placed my order with Chet 4/4. Super cool dude and I chatted with him on the phone for about 45 minutes when it was 11:30 pm his time. In any event I am dying right now waiting for the wheels to come. No word since I placed the order on 4/4. I can't lower the car until the wheels are on (Warhawk 20 x 10 fronts and 21 x 13 rears). The tire gap is driving my crazy to look at. Not expecting the wheels for at least 2 more months. I should have ordered them the moment I got on the build list.

FYI you don't have to wait on lowering your car unless you are doing bags. The wheels will fit perfectly on the lowest setting. Fitment is spot on! I also have a 20/21 combo. 265/30/20 and 325/25/21.

Interested in knowing what the ride difference is/if any when upgrading wheels from 19/20 to 20/21? If upgraded, what size tires did you use without them rubbing (interested in the wider tires for GS Wide Wheels).

Thanks in advance.

I will let you know once I get them installed on the vehicle. I ordered 20X9.5 for the front and 21X12 for the rear. I thought the 13 rear end was designed for the Z06...not sure if there's any rubbing with those, but the 12 rears should be safe based on others' experience.

The wheels arrived today...ceramic coating them this week and hope to put them on by the weekend!

Just installed my Aerolarri 1 of 1 wheels. They will be on site for others to buy in near future but for right now its only set. I couldn't be happier with the design.

Looks great! Nice wheels. I don't know what size wheels the C8 comes with stock (19/20 or 20/21), but are the new wheels the same size or did you move up? Are they 20/21's? Thanks.
