Advice C8 wheels

[WLGJ]

I have been shopping, for after market wheels and cannot believe the trouble. One dealer says this fits , then I go on another site and it says it does not. Then they send me ones, that supposedly fit , so I go see and the site says it does not. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, help?

You're not talking with the right dealers: those experienced with C8 rims/tires. I'd suggest calling to find someone who has actually sold/installed rims on a C8 and can quote you the part number(s) as proof.

Alternatively, you can call MRR Wheels in Los Angeles (I dealt with Carlos). They're VERY experienced with Corvettes and C8's and won't steer you wrong. They won't negotiate pricing (even when offered "cash"; I tried) but will help you out with the cross-border shipping paperwork and they gave me great after-sales service. They also have true forged rims.

Sorry I can't give you any useful info about Quebec dealers. Good luck with your search!

Its closer than LA, but I would recommend Unauthorized Performance in London ON.

On any given day, you will see a Lambo, Porsche etc... sitting in there waiting for wheels. They have guys coming from all over Ontario to buy wheels. I have bought several sets of wheels for my F150s and wifeys Bronco from them and they are price competitive and very knowledgeable.

What type of questions do you have? I consider myself somewhat of a "rim expert" (insert reply from Jack Raccoon).

Call them. They are so busy they arent good at returning messages. Ask for Paul (owner).

How much did that set up run and what do you want for the wheels? Absolutely stunning.

 

[PapaSmurf]

I only have the 2 rears since I decided to up the rear size to 21"

I have two 20x12's. Paid $800 each. I'd let them for for $400 each

I guess the only person who you let service your rim is some dude named Hunter...
