Default Hyperblack Wheels

Does anyone know where I can get some Hyperblack wheels Z07? Only place I found was Corvette garage.

I just mounted these Chrome wheels and I dont like them. I realize I will be having to sell them soon. Just wanted to know where all the Hyperblack ones are? These look too BLINGY for me.

You try Bob's or TomZ? I really like the setup you have but if you don't like them then thats all that matters. As an alternative, have you thought about keeping the wheels and painting the calipers yellow. I've seen some MY with chromies and yellow calipers that look amazing.

W/ a colorful corvette logo on the center cap and some yellow enamel for your calipers, it'd probably look great. Right now I think you are just suffering from el-blando more than anything. No color contrast.

Edit:
Oops, NM the dude I was talking about posted right above me LOL! http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1393981

I'm actually gonna do black chrome when I get around to it. Never really seen it so I'm also curious as to how it'll look with Torch Red. This way you get the bling of the chrome but it darkens it up a bit. Only place I've seen it done is on a Typhoon with ZR-1 wheels.

I don't know if those are real black chrome or some kind of tint coat on top of chrome, but the actual black chrome is not nearly the hardness of regular chrome... just an FYI when it comes to scratches and what not.
