I like them. I have never seen ones like these before. I have always liked a machine finish and they look good on the Z06 wheels.

I am not posting pictures of mine since they are stock wheels, but for those upgrading from wagon wheels, good magnesiums go for about 200 per wheel, and I bought a set of Z06 speedlines for $300, and a couple good sets of polished thinspokes for $200 for the set. (One set that isn't real clean for only $120 and I expect to polish them.)

Thanks, I love them. They are very unique and very few sets exist. In my area there are only two sets of them; my current set and my previous set that I sold locally. For ~$160, per wheel they are not only very affordable but also one of the lightest wheels on the market one can own without spending ~$3K per wheel for carbon fiber.

Bought these about 6 years ago for about 550 from O.E.Performance, About 3 years ago I changed to a different wheel, The C6 5 spoke chrome was a great wheel, A bit heavy, But the finish held up very well.

Since I'm shopping for new wheels this thread looked like it needed to be resurrected!

I bought these C6 wheels for about $350 and spend another $450 to have them professionally powdercoated. They're going up for sale soon if anyone's interested
