I'm looking for new rims and different options for changing the looks of our cars. I want anyone with rims that fit our cars to list them here. Come on guys, we all like new shoes! If your willing to part with your rims please post up. We all know everything is for sale so don't feel bad asking too much. Stock rims and aftermarket rims with the proper hardware so they mount properly are welcomed, let's make this easy. Please post publicly and first come first served!

I see that you are shipping a complete set of rims to the St Louis area. Can you let us all know how much shipping costs are for those to give us a ballpark shipping cost?

i have been getting shipping quotes from this site that uses greyhound bus and they are consistently about 1/2 price from fedex.

www.busfreighter.com/

only drawback is you have to go to a greyhound terminal to pick your package up.

These are HREs,can?t remember to style. Wheels were built to my specs,front are 18/10 rears are 19/11.5. The additional 1/2 inch was added on the inside of the barrel. The rears were custom built with the deep lug area specific to the ZR-1. The tires are Michelin?s Pilot Sport something. The fronts are 265/40 rears are 325/19. The 265/40 on the front filled out the wheel well better than the 275/35. There might be 4000 on the rims,rear tires maybe 500 miles on the front tires. These are flawless, time for a change. The whole package was well over $8,000 sell everything for $5500. I?m in Fremont.

I paid way too much for them! I was able to personally pick them up 6 1/2 hrs from my house. Unfortunately not for sale. $625 per rim was my price non negotiable.....ouch.

I had no idea $2500 for a set was a good deal. I picked them up in St Louis MO area. They were listed at $3000 a month ago (Facebook Marketplace).The seller new what he had and would have sent me down the road cash in hand for anything less!

Hey, so I just bought my first ZR-1! I am restoring it back to original and I'm not going to be using the aftermarket rims. I don't have any better pictures right now but can get more if anyone's interested. I don't know the brand but they are in excellent shape. Open to offers!

I guess you wouldn't just sell one front rim ?

We all want new rims?



I don't think that's quite true. To me chaning the rims ruins the car, even just changing to a different year ZR-1's rim. Love what you own, no need to make it look like something else.

Well kick me! Buy one first. I like to play dolls. I do enjoy changing their clothes.

Yeah no. Mods are frowned upon in the Corvette community. You want to be unique, get a mohawk. Don't ruin your car.

Huh? When did that happen? Corvettes are likely the most modded car in history.

Btw, do we offer a troll of the year award?

Damn.
Guess I could consider the mohawk....................

I look at it as personalizing it. Making it my own. My car was one that would have probably been parted out.. glad I made it how I wanted it..

I am also impressed with the time capsules as well
