The 4th gen LS1 SS wheels, have a slight bend in one out of my 12 wheel set.
Anyone have one for cheap? Not in a rush...

Pranav, if you only need one, we can buy a set and split it.
LOL, after this weekend I need two now!Quote:

one of them isnt so bad that I cant run it haha
I could also use one to round out a set of three. Technically Ross needs one as well.

17x9.5 Z06 wheels.
Chrome, are those heavier?
Talked to him, they are knockoffs
In my brain is a note that the chrome wheels are somewhat more brittle due to the chroming treatment. Somebody that knows set it straight.Quote:

I have heard the same thing. Saw it on a Corvette as wheel my first weekend at the track. Guy had a crack in one of them that had been chromed. Just stick with OEM wheels that haven't been blinged.Quote:

Too rich/too much risk for my blood.
You can sell the 18s for an easy 300/pr and Corvette guys want them all day long for a square track setup.
300/pair for the 18s? Really? Hmm
Last year I bought a set of 17/18 for $300. 2 had rash, and I was up front about that on the 18s that I sold for $300 plus shipping. They didn't last a day. I turned around with that $300 and bought a pair of 17s for $300 shipped. The guy selling these 10 spokes, ironically, bought my 5 spoke knockoffs last year which is where the first $300 came from to start this process. Now I just need to do it again.
