VERY nicely done. I really like the design. How much are these again? And these are a pressure cast wheel, correct?

That's correct, low pressure cast alloys...

GREAT NEWS!!!

We will be offering (2) new finishes.

• Black / Machined Face
• Hyper Silver With machined face!

These finishes will be very similar to the "brushed aluminum" finish that many have inquired about. Pics coming shortly.

For those of you who already ordered a solid color, no problem. We can machine the face before the wheels are clear-coated and shipped for delivery! Just let us know by phone, PM or email.

Lips:

front lips will be a full 2", Rear lips are going to be A full 2.5" on the rear of the C5/C6 sizes, accepting C6Z06 Big Brake upgrade kits no problem!

C6Z06 fitments will be a full 2.5" in front, and 4" lips in the rear!

We are extremely proud to announce this news, because as many of you already know, not only are there very few aftermarket wheels available for C5/C6's aside from Reproductions, but there are virtually none with a deep lip that ALSO accepts the big brake kits, AND costs less than $4k per set!

As far as C6Z06's are concerned, these are the VERY FIRST alloy wheels available to the Market!!!

We thank everyone for your orders and your continued patience.

We will continue to update everyone as the project continues.

That sounds awesome! The best part is that they clear Z06 brakes! Maybe I can get in on the next go-around.

Good looking wheels. So far, a new steering wheel is on my "next few mods" list . . . and now maybe these wheels, as well (if the price is right).

Default More Info...

Our ZFORCE 1PC Low Pressure Cast Alloys were engineered and developed in the USA by the original founder of HRE Wheels.

With 40+ years experience in the wheel industry, including
manufacturing OEM wheels for GM, we thought we would partner up with some of the world's most respected Pioneers in the wheel industry to ensure a top quality product that will exceed any and all expectations from our customers.

The tooling/manufacturing process is being completed in China, and
although they test all wheels before they are shipped overseas,
meeting all USA standards, including OEM, we are also having
additional independent testing done here in the USA as well. All
results will be published on the ZFORCE website when available.

Any questions, as always, please do not hesitate to ask.

Default Zforce - High Polished Stainless Steel Lips!

Here is a picture of the lips we will have on the wheels when they come in. They are a High Polished, Stainless Steel that will not oxidize, and will stay a chrome-like mirror finish. We chose not to go with Chrome, because these lips can be color-matched / painted, if our customers choose, whereas the chrome cannot. They are beautiful!
