65-66 Repro Steel Wheels

[Ralph B.]

65-66 reproduction steel wheels form Corvette Specialties

Looking for any feedback that you may have, or know of, for these rims in
terms of quality, configuration and importantly; do the hubcaps fit OK?

Thank you,
Ralph

Ralph,

How much do these go for? The last time I was at Carlisle I score a pair of originals for $500.00.

Joe,

The reproductions are available at Paragon for $572. 00 (for 4) ----The originals are priced all over the place, seen them as low as $800.00 and as high as $1,800.00.
The lower priced ones appear to have issues and in need of media blast and paint whereas the higher priced ones look much better and appear to be ready to use as is.

Obviously there's always risks with old used rims whereas they're going on 50 years old, thus reason for considering the new reproductions; however can't seem to find anyone who have them yet to get their opinion which will help my decision.
