Default Wheel hunt

I hope to have a corvette around September and I have been looking for a good looking set of wheels to go with it should I get a C4. I have found the look I like but I have been unable to find any in the style other than Dymags which are a little to expensive for me. Any help would be appreciated.





I'm also considering this style and any help with these would be great as well.

The early generation of wheel that CCW was selling, had several different style centers, and 2 of them were very similar to both of the pictures you posted. They may still have some of those centers on hand, and can make you up a set of wheels. A lower cost option to a 3 piece wheel, but one that also hasn't been around in a while, is American Racing. They, as well as their "lower cost" line, American Eagle, had a 5 spoke similar to your picture, it was called the style #234.

If you search out e-bay, or know how to reach some of the bigger, regional warehouses, you might even be able to find some "new old stock"......
