Default My new C6... Rims must have been painted

Waxed and all cleaned up. What do ya'll think about the rims? I'm guessing they have been painted.

I assume you are talking about the "barrels", or inner wheel. It looks to me like the barrels are painted red, as are the rotor "hats" and calipers...looks good!

I have the exact car minus the colorful barrels and rotor hat. Very interesting look.

Just my guess, but it looks like the calipers were painted. Coming from the factory, the mounting brackets were left unpainted.

Like this look, would like to make it a winter mod I do in black for my black vert, but will need pucks and some sort of very low jack that does not break the bank to buy.
