Sure does! I am getting ready to change my wheels out I think. They look ok when they are perfectly clean but if you drive them to the corner and back they look dull and grey. Think I am going with some polished Z16 wheels. Any Thoughts?

Im talking about polished Z wheels... I love the Z wheel... just the painted seems a bit dull with this shiny of a car... the chrome looks nice, but its a bit shiny for the car... the polished Aluminum seems really perfect for it.. I have seen the setup before, but cant remember where.. I am trying to find a pic of it so I can see if I want it.

BSM's, why?????
Added weight, on a sports car, no added benefit, what doors on what
cars are going to hit that BSM??? There are to many cars, trucks, etc.
that won't exactly hit the BSM.

Funny, no BSM's on the C6. No one has mentioned that. Guess GM
read some of the BSM removal articles here.
