Good morning all,

This is my first time back on the forum since Sept. Once the weather breaks here I am looking to put some brand new wheels and tires on my 02. I'd like to stick to C5 Z06 sizes. I am really in love with the Z06 wheel for that year. Either the Gray factory color or chrome is what I am looking for. I'm not looking to break the bank for a wheel and tire combo. I had an expensive pair on before and lets just say they turned out to be total garbage as the years went on, just horribly made. Basically, I am just looking for an upgrade that will change the look of the car.

A place to start would be, what's your budget?

2 grand maybe a bit more. I can’t justify spending huge money on wheels on a car that only gets driven for maybe 4-5 months of the year.

$2K for just wheels, or are tires included in that number? If it's just for wheels, a set of Forgestars in C5 fitment would cost around $1700 or so. A nice set of oem Z06 wheels will probably cost close to a grand but their 17" fronts can create issues, with tire selection.
Where are you located, Justin?

J Anz

located in RI. Roads are total garbage from the winter and the plows. They don’t really fix anything as far as potholes. Had a blow out on my other car from a pothole in the middle of the highway...unmarked. So that’s why I am not keen on spending a lot of money for wheels and tires.

I was looking into SR1 performance wheels in a 18x8.5/19x10 setup.
