Hey all,
I need an extra set of Z06 rims for autocrossing -- gotta have something for those race tires but they HAVE to be the same size as stock. Stock Z06 wheels seem to be hard to come by and expensive ($2500). I found a set of aftermarket wheels in the right sizes (CCW's), but they cost $1700 or so. I know that Corvette Mike sells Z06 reproductions for about $1400.
Questions:
(1) Do these weigh the same as the stock wheels?
(2) Are they as strong? I don't want to race on inferior-quality wheels, for obvious reasons.
Anyway, please respond with your opinions -- should I use reproductions for my autox tires?
