I broke down...
Ordered these today...



Got these for a kick ass deal new from TomZWheels, They were $500 total for 18x9.5(2) & 18x10.5(2) with all the accessories shipped to my work.

I should have tires for these in a month or two. I'm going with a 275/35/18 BFG KDW2 up front, and a 295/35/18 BFG Drag in the rear. Should be pretty pimp on the new lowering springs.

Now I am Dub'n - 2

-10 Cool points, just for being like everyone else.

They should still look good on your car though, keeping with the color scheme.

z06s are lightweight and cheap. they look great too and come in a 10.5 rear fitment. find me a better looking wheel comparable in weight and price that comes in a wide rear fitment and i'll buy you a grease trucks sandwich

I'm with Jake on this one. I couldn't find a 18x9.5 & 18x10.5 combothat looked remotely good in the price range that I payed. Sometimes you just gotta suck it up. Maybe someday If I hit the lotto I will be able to afford something custom and one off.

I think they are a hair different because i don't see many 18's all around or that many black non-rivet wheels.

are you half retarded? z06s weigh between 20-23 pounds depending on size and year. SS 10 spokes weigh 21 pounds and TT2s weigh 28 pounds for comparison sake. the only wheels i know of that are lighter are baller status forged wheels or drag wheels
