Default Where to buy these wheels?

Hi, I'm looking for both the light gray C4 ZR1 rims and the charcoal C5 Z06 wheels. Both 17inch (unless the C5s are 18s only). All C4 sizing, not ZR1.

I know I can google so I can guess I'm more asking what reputable retailers I can get either set from? Thanks!

I'd maybe find the "best price" and use that as a conversation with a "FORUM SUPPORTING" Vendor and see what happens. A "local" buy would be very difficult I'd think to do competitively BUT depending upon your location it's a maybe for sure.

I imagine most of the buys in recent years have been done as sets with tires from many different vendors. eBay buys I'd expect for many.

OE wheels used to have a very good "sales direct" reputation but that's been years ago for my experience so I'd think my experience maybe "useless". It's been 12+ years maybe or more. There's so many people in the "replica wheel" business I certainly don't know where I'd start. Glad I'm not wanting or needing.

Year might matter?

Yeah I think the year matters because towards the last MYs I believe the tire sizes changed a little in the front, not sure.

Thanks for the tips. It seems I'm pretty late to the OE C4 rim game. Its ok, just have to know where to look.

Thanks, I see the regular ZR1s but damnnn about $1,200 But maybe thats a good price nowadays for replicas.

I didn't see the charcoal Z06s but I'll keep looking.
