Competiton Gray C6 or Z06 Wheels on a Victory Red C6?
Does anyone have pictures of a Victory Red C6 with Competiton Gray wheels or Z06 Competition Gray wheels? I was thinking about putting reproduction Z06 wheels in Competion Gray on my Victory Red Z51Coupe and I wanted to see what those or regular Competition Gray wheels look like with Victory Red.

Thanks Craig. Looks good! I am sure they show less brake dust than my polished wheels do. How close is the competiton gray color to the color of the brake calipers? Thanks.

Personally I don't care for the chrome wheels and the bling look. I prefer a racier look that is why I like the polished wheels and the competition gray wheels. When I was looking for my C6 I looked at only cars with painted or polished wheels, but I never saw a car in person with the competition gray wheels. I was concerned that the competiton gray might be too dark with the red so I wanted to see it.

nice pic.. same color combo here except i have the red roof.personally, i think the grey wheels look sportier, brake dust problem is the same, i still wipe the wheels daily, dust is bad w/ (Z51). The wheels and the calipers are a very close match, another plus, for me at least. The wheels also look darker at night, pretty badazz if you ask me.

Thanks for the replys everyone. I am still hoping someone has pictures of Competiton Gray Z06 wheels (OEM or reproduction) on a Victory Red C6 or Z06.

And they look very nice on your LMB vert too Tom! I like the blue. Where did you get your wheels? Also what sizes did you get? I was thinkng about 18x9.5 in front and 19x11 in the rear. Your wheels are just what I am looking for.

The chrome looks better on the Z06 wheels than I thought it would. I still want the CG though.
it will set your car apart from the norm
. so do the CG wheels.
