Copycat C5 Vette wheels... Trying to wade through the river
So looking around on ebay for a set of polished C5 wheels and noticed what appears to be quite a few knock offs. Anyone have any good recommendations or ones to stay away from? Every set of authentic C5's I've found thus far have major curb rash and they're asking nearly $1000 for shipped.

www.oewheelsllc.com is probably the most popular for repro wheels. they seem to have a quality product. i cant say from personal experience but i see the name thrown around alot and havent heard bad about them yet
they dont have a 3rd gen specific rim so you will need spacers obv.

I've had my z06 replicas from OE wheels and there's no flaking or pitting or anything along those lines after about 2 years of daily driving. I have around 21k on them
