I don't think so, it's just what the color is called from the manufacturer.

Good look for sure. Something I want to do but I can never find a wheel that looks appealing to me on the C7.

I like them. (Z06 Wheels). Red,White,and Black are the only colors that can pull off that color wheel.

In addition, I like the design of the wheel on the Ferarri. a little too big for the car IMHO, but the design is the cat's azz

The PUR wheels on the Stalion look sick. I love that style and do a lot of PUR wheels.

Did you do Stance wheels on the C7 Z? They look good too

I know many here do not like chrome, but those are some bad *** wheels on the Ferrari. Are they, by chance, made by Kompression Wheels?

I like the rims, they look like factory stingray rims, which I always liked. I think that style rim looks great on the 7th gen. The color works too.

As for the Ferrari...please tell me that was purchased as a totaled vehicle and you decided to go that direction with it to save on repair costs...that is the only excuse acceptable. WTF? Why, pray tell.

I really like the style and "deep dish" look of the wheels (especially the rears,) but I don't like the color. Kind of looks like jewelry on an athlete. But, then, to each their own.
