Check the back of the wheel, probably on one of the spokes. It should be stampled with the wheel width and offset.

I can't paste the link on here but I just found several of them on Amazon.com if you can believe that. Go to amazon and search C6 and then refine the search and you will find them.

They look like competition gray wheels too which I havent seen offered as replica replacements. You can likely get gunmetal stuff from OE wheels but not sure its the same color as oem comp. gray.

Find a company that repairs wheels if they'll be that hard to replace
