Hi all i want to purchase a set of bolt on's for my 67 coupe i'm wondering who makes the best reproduction wheel . Are there differences or do all the wheels come frome the same manufacturer . the car will not be judged with the wheels on , I just want a nice wheel . thanks Don..

I had the very same question several months ago and found that Corvette America has an excellent repro. Purchased a set and I'm very satisfied with the form fit and function. Fins, star burst are as close to the real deal as you can find at this time, only part not like the original is the center cap is plastic not metal as the original.
Resonable price compared to the $10K+ for a real set -

I bought one as a spare from Americas Finest Corvettes www.corvetteusa.com and it is absolutely fantastic.....as exact a copy of the original as you could hope for...correct length/thickness ribs.....correct rim configuration......even has the 'bumps' on the rear...I received zero deduction at recent chapter judging meet. Mike Mermelstein is the owner and his comms & service were second to none - makes a real difference for those of us 'Down Under'.
Best Regards,

Don, check this out http://virginiavettes.com/wheels.htm . I talked to the owner. He is selling 67 bolts (new generation built to GM spec in conjunction with NCRS) for $2,100 complete set.Comment
