Introducing the MG05
Ultra-Lightweight Magnesium Forged Wheels for Your Corvette

We’re thrilled to announce that the all-new MG05 wheels have officially arrived—and they’re a game-changer for Corvette enthusiasts looking to shed weight without sacrificing strength or style!

Unmatched Weight Savings
Crafted from high-strength magnesium forging, the MG05 delivers astonishing weight reduction while maintaining exceptional durability. Our first installed set on this gorgeous Z06 showcases a 19x9.5 front (just 18.3 lbs per wheel!) and a 19x12 rear (19.4 lbs per wheel!). That’s a significant drop compared to many competitors, enhancing acceleration, handling, and overall performance.

Perfect Fit for Every Corvette Generation
Whether you drive a classic C5, a track-ready C6, a refined C7, or the cutting-edge C8, the MG05 is available in sizes ranging from 18” to 21” to suit your build. No matter your setup, these wheels deliver both aggressive aesthetics and functional performance.

Why Choose Magnesium Forged?

- Stronger than standard alloys
– Engineered for high-performance driving
- Exclusive design
– Stand out with a sleek, modern

100% yes !! You can choose any color except polish or chrome as magnesium can’t be done in those colors but anything that’s powder coated we can do

Just got a quote for some MP05's in black, quick render they provided. I do love light weight forged magnesium wheels. Keep the OEM wheels for winter use with PS4 AS's and the MP05's with PS4S's (non ZP) or try some ExtremeContact Sport 02's.
