Notably, several 2024 Corvette wheels are currently unavailable to order, as GM Authority is detailing right here.
In total, there are three 2024 Corvette wheels currently unavailable to order. All three of the wheels in question are normally offered as optional for the 2024 Corvette Z06 and 2024 Corvette E-Ray, and were not offered for the 2024 Corvette Stingray.

The first of the 2024 Corvette wheels currently unavailable to order is the 20-inch front and 21-inch rear Carbon Flash-painted carbon fiber wheel, tagged with RPO code ROY and priced at $9,995. The 20-inch front and 21-inch rear visible carbon fiber wheel is also unavailable, tagged with RPO code ROZ and priced at $11,995. The final 2024 Corvette wheel currently unavailable to order is the 20-inch front and 21-inch rear visible carbon fiber wheel with Red stripe, tagged with RPO code STZ and priced at $13,500.
The three unavailable wheels are also listed below:

It’s unclear at this time when these three wheels will be available to order again.
Per a GM Authority exclusive, production of the 2024 Corvette has been pushed back to September 12th, 2023, one week later than the September 5th production start date that GM Authority reported previously. Production will once again take place at the GM Bowling Green plant in Kentucky.
It’s also worth noting that the destination freight charge for the 2024 Corvette is set at $1,595, an increase of $200 compared to the $1,395 DFC included with the 2023 Corvette.

What a letdown. You fight for YEARS for a place in line and pay outrageous ADMs only to find out on order day that you have to settle for whatever parts are available. GM is earning some real hate from customers with the C8 and it’s variants. After my 2020 experience with Coughlin I will very likely NEVER buy another GM product.
Jim we live in a supply-and-demand environment. As long as there are a sufficient number of people who are willing to pay the ADM, nothing is going to change. I think that GM does not want to get into a legal battle with dealers on charging the ADM’s because it does not affect GM’s bottom line. If GM knew it would increase their profits if they took the rogue dealers to court, they would do it.
@Joe – I (almost) don’t even care about the dealers charging ADM. Most of these cars are going straight to auction anyway and I’d rather the dealer reap the reward rather than the reseller. My point is that for the people buying the car to keep – these constraints are like you climbed Mount Everest only to find the summit has been closed and you have to settle for 300 feet lower. You go through hell to get a car and then get boned right at the finish line. Even of that weren’t the case, my experience buying a C8 back in 2020 was so thoroughly enraging it’ll be a long cold day in hades before I ever consider buying another GM product. I sill have my C8 but I feel it’s safe to say it’s my last car I’ll ever buy from Chevrolet.
Those unavailable wheels are all black in color, and I wouldn’t put a black wheel on a manure spreader, let alone a sports car, so it’s a win for good taste.
Jim don’t hold back. tell us how you really feel!
Jim, I never read about your 2020 experience, but your frustration sounds very similar to mine just recently in 2023 with not only the selling dealer but also from the PDI in Bowling Green. I did get the car I paid for, but the purchase experience and car preparation were the worst of 21 new vehicle purchases I have made during my lifetime. Both would have been totally different had I been able to get a ’23 from my local dealership, and picked the car up there. As I have never received any type of survey from GM regarding the dealer or Museum, it would seem they really don’t care as long as they are selling every car as quick as they are built. I think it naive to think it won’t ever happen again, but I can remember a time a couple generations ago when dealers really appreciated their Corvette customers, when more than a couple had lines of new ZO6s of all colors and asking $10K below sticker. I did not pay above msrp and won’t intentionally ever buy any vehicle from a dealer that ever marked these cars up, but I do agree that dealers might deserve it more than flippers who only hurt the rest of us. I just think a better policy is like the ZO6 and Ford GT warranties that weren’t transferrable for designated periods.
@JB – I agree. For the first 2 model years on Z06/ZR1/Zora sales it ought to be a straight “sold customer orders only, you can’t sell it for 2 years – and if you have to sell it for some unforeseen circumstance the dealer gets first right of refusal” like the Ford GT & Ferraris. If you don’t like the terms, wait and buy one year 3. Easy peasy. They should also prioritize current, repeat and/or long term customers for the early cars. That would curb most of the flipping and get the cars into the hands of the people who actually want them. They also need to start listening to customer feedback and begin nuking allocations for the bad dealers. I’m pro-capitalism but if your business model includes pissing people off so bad they stop shipping at your company forever, something needs to be done.
