I have had good luck with these wheels for several sets. Just make sure you get the offset right:

Factory Reproductions warranty is 2 years on the finish, OE Wheels is one year, FYI. Not sure if one is better than the other but if one is willing to warranty the finish for twice as long it might say something.

Wasn’t aware of the warranty difference. Was just sharing an alternative I have had success with three years with no issue on my last set.

It was one of the things I took into consideration when I bought mine. I haven’t heard anything about finishes being an issue so it might not mean anything but how long a company warranties their product is an indication of quality imo. They both have lifetime structural warranties but I figured what goods that if they chip or peel. I’ve had mine on for 4 years I believe and no issues with how they look. I know GM had issues with finishes on some of their wheels, chipping around the bead or in the lug holes etc. Nice to hear you’ve had good experience with yours as well.

Gm’s wheels had all sorts of issues right out of the box.

Yup been there done that many years ago on a Silverado. I wound up having to buy a 1.5" body lift to clear my tire rub bc I goofed up when ordering the wheels. Went negative offset when I shoulda stayed positive offset

Thanks y'all

I'm pretty happy though I think I would've liked fuel wheels a little bit better. But it's Wifey's car so she got final say so. They do look pretty clean
