Ebay 1LE wheels
Anyone have experience with those wheels, the gun metal grey ones? I know.... sacrilegious idea but just curious.

Same here with my previous car, a C5 Corvette. Took it to a tire shop and they told me I needed centering rings. Nobody could tell me the proper rings so I just lived with it. Bugged the sh__ out of me too. I will never buy aftermarket wheels again. |

Other than genuine 1LE wheels your best bet would be to get a new set of MRR 1LE replicas.

My rule with ebay is I only buy things I'm okay if I don't mind if it suddenly fails without warning.
If wheels failing without warning wouldn't bother you, I'd pick up a set. |

I bought my MRR M017 Gun Metal 1LE replica wheels via ebay, and I didn't have a seconds problem. I'm in Australia, so my options were limited, but I would happily do it again.

This article is more about forged vs cast wheel construction, but it does illustrate the risks you may be taking with cheap wheels.

Replica Wheels
I've put four sets of replica wheels on my 2010 and 2013 Corvettes, 2020 Silverado Custom, and 2016 Camaro 2SS and have never had a problem. The wheels were replicas from OE Wheels. Lucky me . . .
