z06 wheels I picked up from bcgetfresh...

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.

I'm digging the black/pewter look.

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

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
