  • New shoes for the Vette!

    My new wheels are at long last on the way for the Vette! Having 18x9 and 18x10.5 for daily's built with an extra pair of 17.10s for dag radials and a pair of 1": made for the drag spindles and drag tiers. Got some Michelin PSS 265/35 for the front, 295/35 for the rear with some MY 305/45/17 for the 17s and not sure yet what to use on the 15's. I really want that 9.16 record for the manual C5, Had them done in gloss gunmetal gray with the center caps done in laser etched C5 Corvette flag emblems. Cant wait toll they get here! Gonna have them all ceramic coated before install to help keep them clean/scratch free.

            They are True Forged Sleepers. Not sure on weight, I will weight them when they get here.

              I have never been happy with the quality of most aftermarket wheels but the brand you are getting has always been outstanding. They look really sharp.

                    I believe that the wheels pictured are a multi piece design and the bolts are necessary.

                      You can clearly see the nuts behind the bolts in the second and third pics, they're not fake.
