Check eBay. I'm sure you'll find some there.

Maybe they were available but I do not recall seeing new replica
Z/06 wheels finished in black, only chrome, Argent Silver and something
approaching the OEM finish. Unless someone else chimes in to correct
me, I would caution that black wheels might be repaired & refinished,
in which case - buyer beware!

While the OEM Speedline take-offs are not nearly as plentiful on eBay
nowadays, the prices have come down (as has the condition of them).
While your preference is black, I would encourage you to take a second
look at the OEM finish if a set turns up. I sure like the overall look of
my car with these wheels.

I stand corrected. The Motorsport wheels with the 3-pc look
haven't registered on my radar.

They really haven't registered on mine, either.
Just add fake bolt heads to a cast wheel and call it "Motorsports"...?
Oh, well....

I put Black Motorsports on my Vette (pictured in the members gallery under C4 wheels - yellow 95). I got them from Tomzwheels.com - He also sells on eBay - when I had a fitment problem with the first set I bought (realized after I sent the Cashiers check - I called and the order was switched to these, and I was refunded the difference - He is VERY easy to deal with - I was impressed).

I think OE Wheels on Ebay has black ZO6 wheels now. That's where I got my stock finish ones from. They have great deals and I've been very pleased with the wheels. They are indistinguishable from the factory '01 ZO6 wheels I have that I'll be using for racing after I wear out my current race tires.
