Default Any Experience with OEwheelsLLC.com

I need new tires on my 95 Convertible, and front left wheel has a small chunk out of it. I have not had much luck locating a replacement, and have been looking at the offerings from oewheelsllc.com. They have a package of ZR-1 reproductions with (4) 9-1/2" wide wheels or a stagger set with 2 of those and (2) 11" wide wheels. They recommend the ZR-1 tire sizes with this combination. Would these fit my 95 without extending beyond the wheel openings? Anyone dealt with this company and have an opinion on them? Thanks

I bought some rims from them for my old ws6. Great service and pricing. Lots and lots of reviews over on ls1tech. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from the again

Where are you located? I've got a set of ZR-1 (5-spoke) staggered 2 X 9.5 and 2 X 11 that are as new. Northern Virginia area.

OE has generally been quite reliable, I have a set of their wheels that I bought several years ago and I've been happy. There are occasions with any vendor when anything can happen - that's just the way it is. There's "bumps" in all of those roads!

My OE wheels are still looking & performing great after over 10 years of service. I'd buy from them again without a second thought.

I bought a complete set for my 85 years ago and was very pleased.

Just bought a complete set of ZO6 wheels for my 95 from them in November and great service and no problems.

I have the GS set on my car.. 275f/315r not a problem.. you should pick up the quater flares.. highly recommended... outstanding price...
Ps
When I replaced my nitto 555 dot slicks from american muscle. with 555's they balanced with no weights..
Never had that happen. On any rim

I bought from them too. I was extremely happy with the wheels, especially for the price. I didn't get tired from them, so I can't speak about tires though.

Mine still look great after two years and 12+ autocross events! Great to deal with too.

I've had mine for 5 years now. Still look new. I'd buy from them again no question.

I am in NW Indiana and can purchase these from OE for under $600 shipped. What are you looking to get out of yours? Do you have any pictures? Thanks
