I like black rims with a red rim stripe on an EBZ.

I am very open minded, and like abstract things, and am all for crazy color combinations, but that just doesn't look very good.

Go to pantherwheels dot com. They do some great work. I'm thinking of changing my stock wheels that are painted silver and then the outer surfaces are machined to the same machined outer surfaces and EB or Black. Then have some stoptech calipers painted EB.

almost look photoshopped... I like red seats with blue on Vettes, but not red wheels.
That's a bit much

BUT... you won't have any problems finding your z06 at a car show, that's for sure.
