offset is wrong the concave will not look the same

Ocikat · 07-11-2012, 11:54 PM

just so you know,...... those are replica wheels not OEM, I can't speak for the quality but the casting on these looks a bit rough from the photos

Kent2010 · 07-11-2012, 11:56 PM

Just ZL1 *style* wheels, not replicas.
AND, the fronts require a spacer to clear the Brembos.

Lose/Lose. No thanks...

or "style"

snaphappy · 07-12-2012, 12:05 AM

How much are the authentic versions? Will they fit on the SS?

Ocikat · 07-12-2012, 12:08 AM

ok just wanted to be sure you knew, I'd do a little research on the manufacturer before buying and like other posts here state, the offsets need to be correct

mgaspari · 07-12-2012, 12:10 AM

i think ill wait and see if anyone buys it first to see a review, if not im not coming close to these.

LimaCharlie · 07-12-2012, 12:57 AM

They are replicas, not OEM. They are cast aluminum and not forged, which means they probably weigh alot and the build quality won't be as good.

joeybsyc · 07-12-2012, 01:32 AM

for 799 they don't look bad... Sure they aren't OEM, but i bet a single ZL1 wheel costs nearly that much through GM.

Thats the way i look at it, but ill still wait and see if someone buys em.

KMPrenger · 07-12-2012, 12:35 PM

I'd be curious about the weight....and I'm not sure what they were thinking putting out a wheel that doesn't fit the SS without a spacer.

Otherwise, they are probably pretty decent wheels and they look fine to me.

What i REALLY want to see is the standard ZL1 wheels in a polished finish.
