One of the reasons I didnt get the PP...base wheels are nice, but im still going to get aftermarket wheels.

couple choices I want one these pages: Element Wheels - Search Page TIS DUB DROPSTARS DEMODA TENZO MOTEGI AXIS and Much More

I like the 5 spoke rohana rc-5 and ace wheels, matte black to match the stripes and GB

Devious, I generally agree with all of your posts, but I really think putting a set of cheap wheels on this car is going to make it look like a V6 with stripes.

Also, have someone weigh the stock wheels as well before you add a bunch of rotational mass to the car. CCW's / 360forged / Adv1 etc etc. I just hate seeing nice cars with C or D grade wheels on them.

well right now they are ideas....I generally will take a VERY long time to get wheels. I like to find a style I like first...then I start to try to match that style to a quality and performance based wheel....dont worry I will make a good choice. Thanks for your concern! :beer:

The way things are looking I will either get some custom wheels, unless I can find super snake alcoas that are not priced over 4K :cuss:

Adv1 doesnt exist???? I remember just watching a video of them talking about the company from start to finish.

Did you try to buy a set and they just never made them?

I know 360 forged got over their heads and like went under for a while.

Why support a company that stole money under another name to start this one?

360 Forged is now run/offered by Custom Wheels For Less, legit company. Tons of Corvette guys have them and they are a sponsor on Corvetteforum.

ADV1 also does exist. The guy ripping people off is no longer in charge of either.

I'd love a set of Super snake Alcoas, has anyone seen any for sale? Everytime I've looked the dealer is sold out

I think a set of those Forgeline F14's and lowered, would be sick!

Not a 2013, but I just got done putting 20x9.5F and 20x10.5R deep concave Forgestar F14s Gunmetal on the 2012 GT500. They are very close to the SVTPP wheels, but enough differences you can tell. I also went with Michelin Pilot Super Sports (got a hell of a deal).... 275/35F and 295/35R.

I think they look good for the price .. I'll be posting up pictures later tonight or tomorrow .. I'm not lowered .. suspension is what I am working on next.

I am interested in seeing your set up. Deep concave front and rear is cool.

F14's look like the belong on the car from the factory IMHO. Very clean wheel... but I'm not getting rid of Shelby Alcoas for them : )

Crowley: What offsets did you go with? FYI, Those look bad ass man.

I'm not sure what the offsets were .. I can probably get specs that are close though ... I didn't get any sunset/sunrise pics but here is what I took yesterday:

Got these put on Friday. Forgestar F14 deep concave wheels 20x9.5F 20x10.5R with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires (275/35F, 295/35R). No issues with the bumpstop etc. I still had maybe close to 1/2 inch when the suspension is unloaded. I would have went 20x11 on the rear, but wanted the deep concave. I think the next deep concave is 20x11.5 .. may be pushing it w/ the bumpstop, but I do have the relocation kit (not installed .. just got it just incase) so maybe sometime in the future :) I know these are close to the svtpp wheels, but I got a lot of complement on those and really like them .. Thanks to Mike at Whiteside Customs (Home Page) .. next up .. suspension.

crowley that looks awesome! gunmetal yes>? I want flatte black wheels for my grabber. How do you like the michelin's so far? I hear great things and the stance looks awesome with the sizes, I might push the rear to 305. I was also considering the F14's
