Awesome! Thats how they should have come from factory...

Still don't know why no one made repos in this wheel with better offsets, still one of the best looking stock wheels out there......

It's hard to tell from the angle but the spacers used must have been about a inch thick to get the fronts out to the edge of the flare like that. I like the design of OEM wheels and that looks great.

Both front and back have 1/2 inch?

285s up front to balance the 345s in the rear?

1/2 inch all around. I believe the fronts are 275 (but not sure as the car is in storage)

in spring I will probably add another 1/8 to the front to make them look a little nicer

Looks sick.

Is that gloss powder coat?

Minus 10 points for chrome lug nuts

Minus 10 is pretty harsh for just lugnuts lol.. I hate them too, bought my dad a set of black ones and forgot to get them for myself.

They're oem powdercoated gloss black.

Thank you sirs.

did they powdercoat the centercap as well or just spray them?

+5 points, you are alright.

fyi, the mod that would set your car off right are the led sidemarkers, its one of the best mods i've done to mine so far.

Well, it's been about 4 months since getting another C6Z06. I finally got it to my standard, I may go a tad bit lower but probably won't get as low as my old JSB Z.

Lowered on QA1 double adjustable coilovers.
Wheels are Modular Concept Carbon CC01 20x10 front and 20x13 rear.
Tires are Toyo T1R 285/25-20 front and 345/25-20 rear.
