Default New C6 Corvette 15 Spoke GM Accessory Wheels Available - Forum Special

Hey forum members!

We ordered two sets of the brand new 15 spoke GM Accessory Wheels. These are the new GM Accessory Wheels everyone has been calling GM to release. They are 15 spoke high polished aluminum wheels. A great beautification to your C6 Corvette!

These wheels will fit 2005-2007 Corvette Coupes and Convertibles. They will also fit Z51 cars and non-z51 cars. Center caps are included.

Retail Price: $3,189 each set.
Forum Special $2475 a set + tax & shipping.

If you you would like to purchase them, you can call our Kerbeck Parts Department at 609-345-6463 and ask for David Holmes and tell him about the forum special you've just seen, or email us if interested and we will contact you.

We only have 2 sets available, 2 fronts and 2 rears in a set along with center caps.

Our Parts Department hours are Mon-Fri 8:30am - 5pm. Closed Sat-Sun.

I like them. I hope the polish is better than the stock wheels.

I'm not crazy about them. Plus, they look like they would be a lot harder to keep clean.

I think they look great! Better than the 5 spoke IMO. 5 spokes are SO over done and played out. A nice 3-4 inch deep dish would be real nice on these.

***Dont forget, its my opinion****

Tell GM that they got it right with the C6-Z06 wheel. Maybe they should make the aftermarket chrome Z06-style wheel for the regular C6. These 15 spokers just look silly! They remind me of a bicycle wheel.

They look nice, but they're not for me either. They do look much harder to keep clean.

Thanks for posting a picture of these, despite the negative feedback you're seeing. It's good to see these things early on. It might be good to see them mounted on a car before we all cast final judgment.
