Wheels for 2022 zl1 1le

I need a second set of wheels for the above. Want to run slicks on track as well as changing stock tires to Cup 2’s for track and street use or possibly the ps 4s for same. Is there any option beside hideously expensive custom rims in 19x11 and 19x12 rims for this car. Tire rack doesn’t even sell a rim for the car and other sites offering less than custom made rims only offer them in 19x10 and 19x11. BTW - I trailer the car to track during summer with F1’s (they don’t l last long). What I’m trying to achieve is a true track tire for good weather and a second set of tires for wet/street use. I know Cup 2’s are a marginal street tire but overall seem to meet my needs better than a more street oriented PS4S.
BOTTOM LINE: I will probably use both sets of tires on track and want OEM rim sizes.

Forgestar are reasonable.

BC Forged the next step up. Still a good ways off HRE and similar prices.

Hit up PK Auto Design. I bought my wheels from them. They're a vendor here and were awesome to work with.

If you're looking for really nice forged wheels in the zl1 1le spec that won't break the bank then I suggest APEX's new forged VS-5RS.
This is my car with their wheels for a photoshoot.

I forgot about Apex. Another solid option that is reasonably priced.

Nice pictures sspddmn-my new car in same color looks kinda dull in comparison. Can you shave in your reflection?

Hahaha thanks...you have river side blue. It's a great blue color also but the hyper blue really pops.

My current set are 20" BC Forge wheels. So far I been liking the 20's.

Forgestars have had several known failures at the track and I would steer clear from using them for track use. While Apex is relatively new to the forged line, their cast versions are used everywhere throughout many platforms and seem to hold up very well. I’d trust their forged stuff personally.

These are AWESOME.

I really miss some aggressive tire on my ZL1. OEMs are meh. I will buy these someday...

I wasn't aware of the Forgestar track failures. Good to know!
