Picked these up last week from bcgetfresh on here. I don't really know how I feel about them yet. Here is a before/after shot. I will eventually clean the car and get up some decent pictures. LMK what you think. Also they might be for sale/trade if anyone is interested.

In my opinion, the color of your car needs a crome wheel, if you want to get the best of two worlds. Get the Z06 wheels crome. Are those the same tires from the previous owner, or are they new tires? They seem to low profile, not enough meat.

I do like the chrome better but it could be the lighting.

i think the black looks good on your car, especially since you have the black top. only thing i didnt like about those wheels is they dont have that nice chrome lip

Personally I think the stance and the car looked better on the 10-spokes.

There aren't any 5 spoke Z06 rims.....both C5 and C6 Z06 rims are 10 spoke.

Thanks Alex, I am still undecided on the look.

I'm digging the black/pewter look.

Do you have a black stripe on the hood as well?

Yup i do! I do have the pewter/black going on, but for some reason these wheels dont do it for me?

I think they would look better if the polished lip was a bit bigger, but I like them overall.

I think they’re nice for a change, but you just can’t beat the chrome 10 spokes - but im a little bias

car looks alot more aggressive, i think only certain color combos can pull off black rims and yours is one of them...looks good.

Some 5% on them windows will help alot too...who needs to see at night!!

yea tint the windows - your car would look menacing. Everytime i see your car at the gym that the first thing that comes to mind. And summer is coming so you'll have the windows down/t-tops off most of the time anyway. Definitely go 5% all the way around - there is no such thing as a partial tint ticket. I went 5% on my rear and 20% on my sides and wish I just did 5% all the way around. 200-250 for all the windows from auto magic on rt47 right in front of Landmark - Clipper magazine usually has a coupon for them also for tint jobs. Oh and if u you tint it make sure you use black paint on the factory bubble patch on the top of the rear window - the thint will not cover those little bumps correctly. Also somehting i wish i did.

I wish I could tint the car now, but I really can't afford any police contact lol. As soon as I am done the academy in july I will probably do it though.

Wait so u can’t get and tickets? I would this that u have a "get out of jail free card" if u explained you were in or entering the academy...

getting tickets or any trouble while your in the academy can get you kicked out even something as simple as a window tint ticket...it sounds stupid but they are strict..but once hes out game on 8-)

both those wheel sets look great on your car, i prefer the black though. the chrome lip kinda pulls into the pewter so it looks hott. black is just so nasty.
