Default Re: Thoughts on these rims?

Fair enough that you don't like the design. At the same time, for the price:

Almost same weight as GM rims
Powder coated with guarantee
You can bolt them up and return them if you don't like them.
The rims are the correct offset for ZR-1

I must at your comment though as I have original GM chromed rims and several sets of rims for my car. I scratched one and it was difficult to get a replacement. I had to get a repro for a upcoming show and it was identical, have had the same rim now for 8 years.

The original GM rims I think say JPN or Japan so these are made in China and they are automatically a cheap POS?

For a 3rd or 4th set of rims, I think these rims are good bang for the buck.

Here is a "cheap repro" while my GM rim got fixed. You can't tell the difference and yes, the rim is in round and light.
