Need some opinions on rims for the C6... help

BLK_DVL · Aug 5, 2006

I considering picking up some rims for the vette. Was going to stick with the the stockers but for some reason I just dont think I am going to be happy with them for much longer. To me the rims can really make the car. Here are some the the choices I am considering. Let me know what you think, I am all over the board right now.

Those HRE's a the bottom look sweet, but the CCW 505's up top look cool too, cheaper and lighter as well.

Ya the HREs look good, but a little pricy- Im going to call a few places and get a quote. I was actually leaning towards getting the iforged versions right above the pic if I went that style route- they are a little cheaper and look a exactly the same. Ive been looking for a while and cant even tell the difference.

The top ones are not actually CCWs, they look almost like the 505's but a deeper dish, thinner stars, rivoted, and are a 3 piece wheel. They are also chromed where the CCWs are polished and I dont really want to go that route again unless I have too and CCWs are 1 piece.

Also your supposed to let me know which one you like better!

I like the HRE's the best because of the two tone but I think Iforged's can come the same way right? If so then I would go with the Iforged.

I would love either as long as the spokes were black.

BLK_DVL · Aug 5, 2006

From the iforged site looks like you can get the insides any color you want. I would think that the brushed aluminum centers would closely match the HRE's. I think that the anthracite or gun metal would look good also.

I also found these, they look real good too, look like the HRE542's.

ccw hands down, allthough on your car, a wheel painted/powdercoated black in the center with either a chromed or polished lip would look insanely good... specially with them tinted windows

I like the top pic Jessie, The way the spokes are split looks awsome

Jessie,

I like the top wheel, but I hope you don't go with those. I think they look TOO much like the CCWs.

What will you want for the Chrome stock rims?

Hey Patrick, the WCC rims are actually my first choice right now. (the ones that look similiar to the CCW 505's. They are deeper dish and a 3 piece wheel instead of a 1 piece. They just look so good in the picture. The other rims Im looking at look good, just not sure if Id be happy with them after a while.

As far as my stock chrome rims, I'd let them go for $500 if you want them (they have like 2k miles on them no scatches). If I go with the 19,20 combo on my new rims the tires will be available also, say $750?

I will also have my B&B x-pipe available soon, let that go for $125. Also about 2k miles on it.

And will have my calipers, rotors, pads, brake lines available, will let those go for say $450 if you want those. These have ~4500 miles on them, the pads are new on the rear.

Let me know if you want any of this stuff before I put it up on the vette forums, I am going to be asking more over there.

Cool, It should look Awesome!

I will take the wheels and/or tires when you are ready. Just let me know. I don't need the other stuff.

Thanks,
Patrick
