I can't vouch for the quality, but the vender seems to have good feedback so you could do worse.
Now keep in mind that these are all 4 17x9.5, usually people step up to the 18s. Just thought I would point that out in case you missed it.

yeah.......ask what size they are. If he has good feed back i would say why not? but ask what size they are. Factory Zo6 wheels are 17x9.5 in front and 18x10.5 out back. I am looking into getting some, except i am going to get chrome. If they are the factory size then i would say go ahead. It looks to me like he is a reputable dealer. IF THEY ARE FACTORY SIZE THEN THAT IS A GOOOOOD PRICE!!........if you dont think you want them. i have a friend that wants to sell his factory rims. (they came off a zo6) i dont want them because they are painted just like those. (I want chrome :D ) Good luck man and nice choice on wheels :D

$2,000 just for wheels. Jeez that's pricey. I never did understand why wheels cost so much.

Dang, you can't beat $600 for Z06 rims. I searched and searched for a great deal on my Z06 rims, but couldn't find a set for less than $1,100. (CHROME)

I ended up paying $1,500 for a set of new Chrome Z06 rims with new Pirelli tires. Not a bad deal, and I LOVE these rims!

You can see them on my car here: http://members.cardomain.com/dvstate

If you want the Z06 rims, and it doesn't matter if they are chrome or not, then I would definitely grab them at that price. It'll be hard to find them that cheap again.

Goodluck!

These wheels are made by Dante, who I believe is the maker of most of GM’s higher end O.E.M. wheels.

The wheels are made in Italy. Dont know if Dante are Italian or not, but if these wheels were OEM, theyd know and be bragging about it. Not to mention the GM stamp on each wheel.

[quote]These particular wheels were slated to be the Special Edition Camaro wheels for the last Camaro to be made before GM dropped it from their production line

Crock of sh!t.

Never-the-less, 600 bucks is a good deal. Even for fake Z06 wheels.

You could get them and have them polished, but there's no guarantee of the condition of the aluminum under the powdercoat (they may be too porous at the surface to polish well, assuming these are cast rather than forged).I'm not keen on the painted look.
