I see that Toms has 2 brands that match this wheel (Topline and Factory Reproductions) and I believe the Verde Wheels are different again. Which brand is Verde Hyper Silver Dark? I went to Les Schwab today to see if I could order them, yes they can. Prefer to pay sales tax to make sure I have avenue if return if sight unseen ends up to be different that I expected. Cant imagine these being shipped well the way delivery people are these days. "pet detective"
Help? Is the only way to get this wheel to get a hold of Toms? The number at the Verde link is dead end, wrong number.
Advice? I want these wheels. They match my guns. I am worried that what I get wont be the Hyper Silver Dark I see here.
other question. Should I stay with stock sizes 18x8.5 and 19x10? I want to keep stock tires for now. Also the 19x10 wheel has 2 different PCD +79 and +56. What is PCD and which do I need for 2007 C6 Z51.
Thanks

i believe the 19x10 @ 56mm is for the FRONT of a C5/C6, if you want to run a 19/19 combo. i am using a 18x9.5 with a 50mm offset front and a 19x12 rear.
call up tomz and tell them what you want...they'll take care of you.
oh yeah...they match your guns?

hope this helps:
the finish on these wheels is actually called hyper silver. it's a very glossy, shiny finish...not flat like competition gray. i haven't seen black chrome in person but i can attest to the shine on these wheels.
here are also the same wheels on a black car:
i have the same wheels and get nothing but compliments on the finish. all photos are courtesy of Jetz.

Most of these are hypersilver. The black chrome is different. You can tell a huge difference at night as well. The black chrome has a much higher reflective property.

Yes. Not on a Corvette though. I seen a set of CCW's done in black chrome on a CTS-V.
I also seen a set on an Escalade. You "really" don't notice their uniqueness until the sun goes down.

The hypersilver has a much more sheen silver look where black chrome has a tinted chrome look (if that makes any sense)

Mine should be here Wednesday. I wont have the car but I will take some very nice shots both day and night to give you guys an idea of the wheels. I should have them on the car (at least the front anyways).
Thats is unless I sell them first

So, just to confirm. The wheels on this black car with the widebody conversion are Verde Wheels with Hyper Silver Dark finish? And these are the wheels that TomZ sells?
Also, since this is a Z06 widebody conversion, I would assume that the sizes are 19x12 rear, and 18x9.5 front.
Can anyone confirm how much heavier these wheels are than stock ones? Or even how much they weigh?

Just go them mounted yesterday, and finished painting the wheel weights black. Black chrome from Bob @ house of wheels, new tires and pressure sensors. Can't wait till morning to install.
