Default C7 z06 wheels on base c6 pics

Got the wheels from bob at house of wheels. Very nice guy and excellent price.

I would like honest opinions on what Yall think. I bought them for the wife for her birthday. She loves them.

Look good, but they could use washing. Lots of brake dust on them.

They're chrome
To bad the car has to wear a plate on the front.

Wheels look great..

Not really seeing why people like gloss black anymore. Whatever happened to good old fashioned aluminum or metal color?

I myself like black, but love a metal finish on blue cars.

They are a nice wheel design, but I would go with a brighter color on a dark car.

Anyone else have pictures of these wheels on a base? I'm ready to pull the trigger on a set of gloss or satin black, and am debating going up to a 19/20 setup.

To the OP, Garmans12valve, any more pics of your car would be great too! What tires and sizes are you running?

Those look fantastic! Are they gloss or satin? I'm considering a set for my '06 DSOM

If your wife loves the look then your a hero. The one weird part of black rims is they don't photograph well....

It's impossible to see in photos what a person sees in real ire.

Thanks for sharing.

I have high polished gumbo es for summer and a set of recently purchased dark grey 2008 rims fitted with snow tires...

The dark rims don't photograph at all but have a cool look in person...

Same with the gloss black you ve given your wife's vette.

You have a cool wife ..

Enjoy!
