Awesome. The machined look is my favorite and looks great on the Z06 wheels.

Being a fellow silver owner, that is sweet! OK, now for the details:

1. What are the sizes (wheels/tires)? Standard Z06?
2. Where purchased?

Thanks.

Answer to #1 = Machined Z06 Wheels (18x9.5, 18x10.5)
Tires: Yokohama AVS Sport (front 275/35/18)
(rear 295/35/18). The fronts are now the size
of the original rears.
Answer to #2 = All purchased from "House of Wheels".
