For $3900 what other wheels are out there besides CCW's?

CoolShoesWalkin · 09-19-2004, 06:44 PM

I'm just curious if anyone knows of some other wheels that could go on a z06 besides CCW's? I am currently leaning towards the 505A's that CCW. Before I buy I wanted to know if there was anything else out there for about the same price.

thanks!

Yeah I looked into HRE and they are way over priced compared to CCW's. I want to stay around 4K for wheels and tires.

Thanks for the reply!

4K for wheels & tires...............not many choices.
Only reason I didn't get CCWs............no 18" in the style I wanted. And the new ones...no 18"
You can get HRE for close to the same $$$ depending on style. At the time, Paul@WCC came up with the best deal...got my current 545 setup with brushed center option..........all at ~25% off msrp 18 x 12 & 18 x 9.5(on order).
I didn't like the though of $$$ for rims but, to go fast it cost $$$

Corvette Wheel Specialists are advertizing certain styles of HRE for just under $3800. That is a screamin' deal for a top-of-the-line wheel.
I got an HRE 540/Kumho MX package through HRE for $4200 and am quite satisfied with them.

How can I get a hold of Corvette Wheel Specialists?

Thanks

I'm in the same boat as you buddy, no 18" wheels in CCW. Looked at regular HRE wheels, but I hate seeing all that metal blocking the view of my pretty calipers and rotors

The HRE R series I love, but waaaaay overpriced unfortunately.

Wish I could find the same wheel as the 505A but in an 18"

I'm looking at the IForged aero or evolution as well.

I really like the 505A's as well. I'd prefer to go with an 18" wheel but as someone else said, CCW only makes them in a 19". You'd think with the demand for 18" wheels, they'd make the 505A in that size.

I like those wheels. I am going to give them a call today and check out the prices. A close second is the SSR from Tire Rack though. ^The Comp-H are light too.

Those are for porshe cars. I don't think the lug pattern will fit a real sports car.
