Default Wheels

I’m looking for wheels similar to the Incurve SS1-SL5—simple, forged, gunmetal—and weighing the same as or less than OEM Z06 wheels.

I can’t seem to find weight specs or a vendor for the SS1-SL5, so I’m exploring other options. Any recommendations? Photo for reference:

Wheels look sharp and easy to clean! Agree with gun metal color - black is played out for me. No clue on wheel specs. Good luck!

Have you seen BC Forged? We do a lot for Corvettes. Check out their styles, they have a couple that look alike.

If interested, let me know.

Thanks for replying. I have looked at BCForged, which makes some nice wheels but i'm leaning toward this 5 spoke design for now.

That is a sweet set of wheels!
Is there a reason why you are not just buying Incurve's wheels? They seem to be fully forged wheels.
What is your budget?

Thanks for replying. No reason not to go for Incurve... Just keeping my options open. Budget is not an issue but it seems that a solid set of forged wheels go for around $4,500 nowadays.

Yes to get a nice set of fully forged custom wheels with what ever offset you want, etc. , you will have to pay around 4 to 5k for a nice set of wheels. They just go up from there. I went through the search not long ago and landed on vtorged. They have wheels like the one selected as well. Give them a look. Good luck in your search.

Thank you, this is very helpful as I have been looking at Forgelite wheels for some time now. Would love to see the above offering in Satin carbon Graphite on a torch red Z06 HTC if possible.

What are the projected weights on these 20/21?

Also, I think I've heard something about Forgelite offering discounted spare wheels (in the event the customer curbs one in the future and only needs a single wheel). Is this true?

Thanks again!

Glad to hear we are in consideration! I'll get some renders made with both those wheels in Satin Carbon Graphite and drop them in this thread once they're ready later today.

Weight wise these are going to be ~27lbs front and ~29-30lbs rear its more of an aesthetic design if you want maximum weight savings we have options like our LP1, SV00, FL1, ETC.

You heard right we offer an accidental damage program that lets you replace your damage wheel / wheels for a fraction of the cost of a new one usually around 40% depending on the wheel design, finish, sizing.

Here's some examples of Satin Carbon Graphite on a Forgelite TRK01
