SOLD!!! Family Reunion!!! C5 Magnesium Wheels 17" X 8.5" (4)
Ha, grouped them all together in the pic for a final picture, some of them wiIl not see ech other anymore LOL!!!
OK, I have 4 magnesium set 17" x 8.5 " bronze wheels off of C5 Corvettes 98 to 04.
Made in Italy by Speedline, these were option "N73" that was limited mainly to export models. As you can see they are in excellent shape.
I have all centercaps as well.
The nice thing about these wheels is that they weigh 17 pounds apiece.
If pick the right tires, you can come up with pretty light weight combinations of unsprung weight.
I ran Toyo Proxes 245/35ZR17's @ 23LBS, plus the wheel 17LBS = 41LBS per wheel.
Tha's better than the average bear for the buck
I went 18's for C6 Z06 Braking
$495 OBO, plus shipping, see fresh pics

BUMP >>>
Price Drop of a $100 to $495 or OBO.
I can't use these anymore.
I posted the ad here because I thought someone might be interested.
If not I can pump them on Craigslist.
Lightweight good looking wheels.

Nice wheels for the money but you have to buy adapters too.

Re: Family Reunion!!! C5 Magnesium Wheels 17" X 8.5" (4)
So maybe I should add adapters here?
I will have the rear adapters (1.75") in about two three weeks, I am having a floater built for my car so I wont need them anymore
I suppose I could round up some front ones 2" or 2.5"?
I also have the four original 15" wheels for $200 w/ tires OBO, these things are piling up in the garage, I have c6 Z06 brakes on the front now, so none of these will fit. I can take the tire off, two are good two are so so Kumho's.

Don't remember the adapter sizes. Depends no the back space. $200 for the 15" may be very optimistic unless they are perfect. I've got two sets and I see them around for $100 or less.

If you get the spacers for the wheels how much money we talking. I saw your post on Craigslist and came here to see how they'd look on my car but I noticed the camaro in the background. So I wanted to see if you were on here and to my luck you are here haha lemme know. -Aaron

Re: Family Reunion!!! C5 Magnesium Wheels 17" X 8.5" (4)
I am doing a floater w/coleman aluminum hubs, and C6 Z06 rear brakes.
So it's power time, all the rest of the supension is done, sub frame connectors, coilovers tube a arms, k frame, LCA's etc, etc.
I'm looking for a 6 speed tremec or a sweet 700R4, a 5.7 or possibly a built 4.3 V6.
6 bolt steering wheel(Picky), light weight snug fit seats w/ frames etc.
There is a genleman here on the forum that may come out this way later in the week from AZ to play, then stop by to look at the wheels.
You never know these dayz.....
