New Wheels & Tires
I just got my new C6 Z06 Hyper Silver wheels and BFG KDWs installed and thought I'd post a few pics. I have to say "
I toally love them " compared to my old wheels and they look even better than I thought they would!
I'd like to thank TC at
Tomzwheels who did an awsome job on setting me up with the wheels!
Here are my old set:
More pics to follow...these were taken as soon as I got home and the lighting is pretty crappy but you get the idea

I think I read your tire correctly, but that is the 18/19 combo, right?

Those wheels look great!
Could someone explain exactly what Hyper Silver wheels are made of? Or what is the finish? Do they shine at all? They look like subdued chrome.
I've been shopping for a set of those in chrome, but I'm wondering on those hyper silver would look on mag. red?
Thanks,
Chuck
