well, you might find some pictures in the gallery, also there is a picture of a black Z06 with the black Z06 rims on it on corvettegarage.com in the wheels section.

Funny you mention the black Z06 wheels. I recently began considering those wheels.....

Someone has to have this setup. I have a silver C5 also, and have been considering the black Z06 wheels with the polished lip...

Beautiful C5 Vert, AJ! And, BTW, the polished lip black Motorsports wheels would look just awesome on any Silver Pewter C5. Enjoy.

Are they stock size? Or even better question, are they the stockers powder coated/painted black?
Any curb rash?

If you're going with the black wheels... you have to get the polished lip.

Personally, I don't see the fascination with an all black wheel. It looks like you're rolling around on a set of donuts. My brother has an orange cobra with all black wheels... really took away from the chrome that was on there before.

Oh well I guess, to each his own.
