Where to find these wheels? (not rims :p)



I have a very hard time searching for them. I always enter C5 wheels, but get the chrome thin 5 spoke and Z06 stuff.

These were available at the same time too!

Some searching for " corvette wagon wheels" has helped, but, very limited returns.

Just trying to find a dealer, or somebody with them so I can cross shop. Ebay is last place I'll go, and by that time I'm gonna be looking for genuine OEM off the darn original Vette ones.

I could do that, but maybe I'm not looking for a private seller to buy them from. or maybe I'd like to see multiple possible sellers.

Those wheels are the 97-99 C5 wheels. They were not available at the same time as the thin-spoke wheels (00+). I don't think anyone ever made repros of them, because the were never very popular. Best bet would be looking for NOS factory wheels, or a set of used OEM wheels.

Since those are Stock Corvette wheels, search on the Corvette boards for vendors. There are quite a few places that carry them in chrome. Trying searching for 97-99 Corvette wheels and you should find some.

Sounds like an excellent offer but I will have to pass.
Good luck finding a buyer though.

Thanks for the info guys.

I have always liked those wheels- remind me of something you would see on a Porsche-

Want to trade some 17" OEM SS wheels? I would have been interested if I didn't already buy them....
