Oh!.....so that was you?........... a little overpriced if you ask me :chuckle:chuckle:chuckle

I'm looking at upgrading the wheels/tires on my C5 vert. Are these still for sale? I know the TPMS sensors won't work on a C5 and will need to check the wheel offsets to see if they will work. How many miles are on the tires and rims? This is a longshot due to your location, nbut I might me...
