Wheel pic wanted
Looking at wheels, I am going to put 18 on back and 17 on front. I have been browsing wheels and need to make a decision.
I keep coming back to the Coy C5 but I like the black chrome.
I am wondering if anyone has these on their vette and if so could I see a pic? also any black and chrome combo on wheels would be ok.
My wife wants black and I think pure chrome would be nicest on the 72, and would work well with the side pipes.

18" Rev Classics front and back. Gordan has 17/18 set up on his 72. Looks very nice. Real happy with my choice. Looks great going down the road too.
18 x 8 front
18 x 9.5 rear (if i remember correctly)

Here are my Boss 338's..18 x 9.5 rear and 18 x 8 front...I also wanted chrome at first, however when I looked at these next to my black I knew these where the right wheels....Good Luck!! The entire project on my '74 and wheels were the hardest decision...

If the car was black I would also agree and would be lots easier. But with ours being a blue I don't know.
I do like the coys that have the black with an inlay of chrome. The ones on yours is the ones she has been wanting I think.

I dont have pics that I can post yet, but if you search the c3 forsale area you will find an ad for a 70 roller forsale by fugawi back in mid november. Those wheels look great on the car! I bought the car and will be putting the original wheels back on,they are forsale.

These are Coy C5 20 inch front and rear in black chrome. Don't mind the dust but I just finished getting rear back together and wanted to see what it was going to look like and had the wife waiting to go visit the kids (have to keep the wife happy as she lets me have all my toys).
