With that amazing reveal today for the 2023 Corvette C8 Z06 its only normal for us to start a new thread about renders, projects and future C8 Z06 owners custom wheel pictures.
Ill be posting and sharing all the insights of wheel manufactures as they will be releasing many renders, offset, width and new designs for the Corvette C8 Z06 they will be using.
Ill start it off with a render from the team over at Vossen that they just did right now and our very own ZE11 model we offer in forged aluminum.
Did a “side by side” of these Vossens paired up with Silver Flare, both of which I’m strongly considering. I believe they are the same model as your first picture but in gloss black. With the Z06’s stock wheel sizes but at a more aesthetically pleasing offset, the concave profile on these wheels should be impressive.
Need something concave and something with a fat lip. I wouldn't buy any of the wheels posted so far
3pc Forged Wheels will be the way to go if looking for deep lips.
This will give you that old school look that some love.

Yes from the calculations I did on the C8 Z06.
The front will be Deep Concave while the Rear will be Super Deep Concave Profile.
The wide widths will give us good room for concavity.

I'll have my guys mock up a couple of them with 3pc forged wheels and exposed lips .
Thank you
Guys, we are excited to show you our new creation for 2022.
These will be available for the Corvette C8 Z06.
These are constructed in Monoblock (1pc) 6061-T6 Forged Aluminum made in the USA.
Shown here is the raw material out of the CNC Machine.
Those look really unique.. I've never seen a sort of dual design like that... it's like you've mashed two wheels together. Looks good actually.. it's taking me a minute to get used to it.
Proof is in the low weight and how it looks on the car mounted.. but kudos for the creativity!
Just back from the Chicago Auto Show today and had a good “first look” at the Z06. I intend to get an HTC without the Z07 package which wasn’t a question, but I wanted to get a good look at the wheels. I intended to get the basic polished aluminum wheel as it looked fine. As a result of seeing them on the silver coupe, I realize I’m going after-market. It’s not the design per se, but once again more offset is required, as the “six” suffers from the same recessed wheel location and appearance as the Stingray. I could do spacers, but not a fan of those, plus it will be an opportunity to more personalize my car.

Same. It’s a gorgeous car and the wheel design and finish compliments it very much so… but those sunken in factory offsets and wheel gaps kill me.

We agree that's why we are going to be cutting more of a Fender Flush Fitment for the C8 Z06.
We just had our techs go measure a local customer with a C8Z.

wow, one of your customers already has a C8Z. That’s impressive.
Designer Imagines A Corvette That Looks More Like a Corvette Than the Corvette
Slideshow: A Jaguar designer's personal project imagines what a modern front-engined Corvette might look like if Chevrolet revisited the golden age of the Stingray.
