- Hey everyone, welcome back to daily downshift! We recently got our new wheels sent over to us from MRR Wheels, out in California. They hooked us up with the FS06's in a carbon flash finish which elegantly match all the carbon flash accents on the vehicle. These wheels were made using rotary forged technology, saving us a total of 12lbs of unsprung weight over OEM. Enjoy the video!
Make sure to check out MRR Wheels and contact Carlos for any of your wheel needs! www.mrrwheels....

I’m an older guy and I’m getting a black convertible with glossy black rims I guess somethings wrong with me lol
I NEVER get tired of seeing this car! Wheels look great with cabon flash color match & also their extending slightly further out than the stock wheels. Nice!
Thanks, glad you're enjoying the content!
I’am an older guy and absolutely LOVE the all black.. looking forward to my C 8 soon🇺🇸👍😎😎💙
These look incredible BOYS, CONGRATS!!! Thinking of doing black on my Seibring orange aswell! Sending you guys support from another small Ontario CZcamsr!!!
ayyy, didnt know you watched these guys bro! You guys should totally link up and make a few vids together. Love both your channels
DUDE as if you guys know each other! I was actually watching one of your C8 vids when I found the boys channel. You guys should totally link!!! +1
lol no way I watch you both too. Collab PLS
Thanks buddy, glad you like them! Look forward to seeing more content from ya
@@DailyDownshift Likewise! I'd love to collab as well :)
Glad to see you guys made it back home safely from Mexico.
It was quite the trip, but we're home safe!
That black roof looks really good, going to do the same thing to my car whenever it comes in
The wheels are sick the car is sick great set up thanks for sharing!
These wheels look amazing!!! Love when a vehicle is accented just enough. Bravo. I want black on black for my 2002 Trans Am when I get it. :D
Thank you!
Looks much better! I will look into these! Thanks! ✌
As an "older guy", LOL, I admit to loving chrome wheels. Maybe I'll have to get 2 sets of wheels, Black & Chrome, then switch them up periodically.
Not a bad idea at all!
Raymond Chandler: I’m going Chrome when my order comes in. Finally Bowling Green is getting ready for Start Up....
@@C5Ron7 Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss! :-) What color will your C8 be and where will you buy your rims? Or will you just chrome the stock rims?
Raymond Chandler: I ordered an Accelerate Yellow Z-51 with High Wing Spoiler and Adrinaline Red Interior, Red Calipers and Engine Cover. Lots of options, more than I thought I would choose but this will probably be my Last Corvette, Go Big, or Go Home. 👍🇺🇸 Not quite sure where, or what I will get for wheels, they will be Chrome, thinking about possibly 5 spoke 2000 C5, or C6 5 spoke Grand Sport Wheels. Not sure yet, I like M/T & American Racing wheels also. Still plenty of time before I get it, I am stuck on “GM’s #3000 Timeout” in Bowling Green. My C6 has Chrome C6 ZO6 Wheels, (only 2005 Corvette offered this color) Millennium Yellow with Red Calipers and I like the look. Corvette --> Born & Bred in the USA 🇺🇸
Black just works with this car in every color. I am getting black wheels on my rapid blue when it arrives and I have black wheels on my current velocity yellow C7.
Add the front splitter and side skirts with no rear wing.
Body kit is essential, we'll be doing one in the near future.
Black looks great with this car I prefer gloss silver or gunmetal wheels I am just not a huge black wheel fan but it goes with this C8
Looks great guys! I'm having such a hard time deciding on these or the blaque diamond bd f25s for my c8 🤔
I’m supporting this channel because you guys are the only ones with a 1LT that I have seen. Very curious of what your going to do to make the 1LT just as great as the others.
Thanks buddy, a lot more mods coming!
At first when I saw the C8 at the Dubai Motorshow I didn't like it at all, maybe because it had an olive color, but I have to admit that red looks cool!
Those look great. What off-sets did you get front and rear? Any difference in handling or the tire throwing rocks etc with them sticking out more?
Can you define reasonably priced? I clicked the link and didn’t see a price
What was issue with tps sensors and what did they do to fix it?
I would like to see the Stingray with a rear spoiler (not the wing).
Wow your video sold me on these wheels! My C8 Convertible is coming at the end of this month and think I'm going with these wheels in the same colour, looks great! I'm in Markham, pretty cool you guys are local! Do you know what offset you ordered on the custom wheel setup or did Carlos just put it together?
Happy to help! Can't recall the offset but Carlos will definitely guide you
Really like the wheels you put on the C8. Can you give me a ballpark estimate of what they cost?
Thanks guys, keep up the great videos!
I believe they are around $2k for the set. But definitely send Carlos an email and he can give you a more accurate quote! carlos@mrrwheels.com
Great choice to not have the spoiler... the car just flows well without it.
Yea, I think the car looks best without any spoiler.
Daily Downshift no doubt
Car looks awesome
I live about 3 hours away. Just ordered a Sebring orange tintcoat . However never seen that colour in person. Can I come and see ,of course from a safe distance. Please let me know
I’m an Older Guy and YES, I’m going Chrome Wheels 👍👍🇺🇸
Awesome, let us know how you like it
Chrome is classic!
They should had that option anyway
Roderick Taylor : I agree 100%, GM should have Offered Chrome Wheels 👍
Chrome is for Harley's
Looks amazing man
Glad you like them!
Looks way way better.
Indeed!
Nice wheels. Do you notice any difference in the driving characteristics with the lower unsprung weight?
Yea, it feels lighter in corners slightly.
Just ordered a set for a c8 i dont have yet!
Those rims are right!
Hi guys, do you have any information of the wheel offsets. Thanks
Can't remember anymore. But I'd message Carlos @ MRR to confirm, he chose the fitment!
@@DailyDownshift k thanks
Got the information required, i just ordered a set of wheels from them. Thanks.
This older guy I'm 50 thinks you made a perfect choice but then again when I get my C8 I'm going all black with red accents red brake calipers and red stitching on the inside
Very nice! I like that combo a lot.
Looks awsome can you tell us what size and most important what offset???
I'm not entirely sure of the offset, but it's definitely not OEM offset. Sizing is all the same, 19x8.5 in the front and 20x11 in the back.
@@DailyDownshift yes iam sure the used a smaller offset like a 38f and 49 rear which puts the wheels out about half inch out towards the fender.
Iam building my own desighn trying to get the most lip and concave out of the wheel ill keep u posted
@@c8miamicarclub ... yes please let us know when you get it figured out sir... thanks
4:04 - total Acura NSX vibe. not a bad thing btw.
Miss the old wheels, but hey it looks sick man congrats
Guys...what was the total cost for the Carbon Flash finish? and what was the shipping cost?
To be honest we already forgot, I think it was around $2k but don't want to give you a wrong quote. Send us an email with details at dailydownshifts@gmail.com and we can speak with them or message carlos@mrrwheels.com directly (up to you!)
so how did you get them to exactly poke out more if you got the stock configuration? im trying to figure this out because i am trying to keep my original tires but want it flush without spacers.
The design and offset is different
@@DailyDownshift i want MRR wheels i love their line up and have some on another car. what exactly is this offset?
@@makpimp4eva14 Can't recall, you'd have to follow up with Carlos
so the stock tires fit these wheels?
Yes!
Wheel gap is to much coilovers needed asap if you woulda gotten the zf1 package the coilovers can be adjusted
Absolutely, that's on our list of mods we need! Tints, exhaust, body kit, springs/coils.
@@DailyDownshift and a new set of wheels
@@DailyDownshift you shoulda gotten the top of the line now your spending more money and haven a bunch of different people messing up the beautiful car in the future it pays to do it right the first time
Do you still have this wheels?
Sold with the car! Definitely getting another set though
Yellow caliper with Orange exterior, while at it, why not throwing in blue interior, that would be AWSOME, dude. LOL.
Too bad they don't have pink interior...
Hey how much were they?
I would contact Carlos from MRR Wheels specifically as prices can always change. He's very friendly :)
What was the offset?
Do the stock C8 caps fit on this??
Yes it does
Now drop the hell out of it!
It'll be lowered for sure!
Did you use the stock tires?
Yes, we did
@@DailyDownshift I'm om the fence to either go gloss black or carbon flash. Is the carbon flash glossy or more mat?
@@superameric8The carbon flash is a glossy finish. You can really only tell the difference from close up, but the carbon flash is truly a beautiful finish.
Right about the wheels, they look awesome, as does the roof and NON z51.
Wrong about the older generation. We like the black and most of us don't like chrome. Don't stereotype people.
Good video otherwise.
Thanks, glad you like the car.
Nothing more deflating than seeing new wheels with big gap. Desperate for a 1inch drop and a wing. ..... and the front lip
Definitely will be lowered soon and we're looking into ground effects.
You don't have Z51 so you will never track. Weight savings irrelevant.
MRR copied Vossen rims
Car looks whicked now
We absolutely love the way it looks now!
Im gonna be honest they look cheap Vossen forged wheel look so much better there wheels are staggered 20x9F
21x12R deep concave in there rear check them out trust me you'll understand my point of view look at the website there wheels are made 10 time better even your wheels in the vossen brands stands out so much better but to each his own just my opion
That's fine, everyone can have a different opinion. I've seen some CZcamsrs put 21's on the rear and I personally dislike it quite a bit.
@@DailyDownshift i guess that y your c8 looks the way it does cheap just my opion just because your have a free or discounted wheel doesn't mean it looks in reality they ruined your car to sell there wheels the older guy told you it looks just like everyone else's
I agree forged Vossen look great but you can get forged MMR the same but double the price also. Look at the MMR NES-01 can get in a 9 and 12 width
@@DailyDownshift I agree. Stock sizes are fine for me also. Right now for me, it comes down to MRR and Vossen. Morgan Crosbie of "Cars and Crosbie" in Ontario swears by Vossens and my local tuner does as well. But, I'm pretty sure they are much more expensive. These MRR wheels look good enough and I'm seriously leaning toward MRR because I can't justify the cash for Vossens. Looking at Morgan's C8 with Vossens and yours with MRR, I don't really see a huge difference in the quality of how they look. Anyway, I'll do my pricing homework and see. Thanks guys, I wouldn't have known of MRR if it wasn't for you guys.
Come on man they don’t really look that good brah
Nice design, but I hate black rims, no personality.
