I wonder if there is much improvement in handling and how this changes the ride...

I doubt there would be any change. Along those same lines; can anyone suddest where to buy C6 chrome wheels. I will buy replica wheels from AFS or OE Performance. Is TomZ Wheels a good source for these C6 wheels?
Thanks

I purchased mine from Corvettes of Houston. Fast, inexpensive and efficient. Couldn't ask for more than that, in my opinion.

They were "on special" when I got them. Can't recall the exact price, but it was in the general neighborhood of 850 for the set. Don't know if that price is valid any longer though.

Yes, am running the stock run-flats (until they wear out, then I'm not sure what, after that), and no problems with the sensors.

I've been thinking of the new rims for my 01, and those Z06 rims are fantastic.

My humble opinion, but I think they look better than the C6 rims.

Temptation, temptation, temptation!!!

Thanks Karl. Now I just gotta get "the little woman" to agree.

Go for 'em Mike....I can use your support!

Thanks...I sure like them. Gives the vette "personality", heh, heh, heh. They're kind of a "poor mans" CCW 505.

Hah! I'm not humble about it at all.....I don't think the C6 rims look good, even on the C6.

Temptation, temptation, temptation!!!

All I can say is "GO FOR IT".....do what I did and tell the wifey (aka the boss) that what you get out of selling your present rims will pay for the new ones. That's what I did, and it wasn't a lie either....what I got out of the old polished 5 spokes paid for TWO of the new rims, (I never told her how many it would pay for).
