Black c5's

Hey guys, and girls. I'm looking to change the rims on the car for the summer. Can you post up pics of your black beauty with other than stock rims. And also if you tell me make and size of what you're running. Much thanks.

Hate to say it, but I've yet to get any pics of my black '99 coupe with the new wheels. Went with the chrome five spoke C6 replicas. They are stock sizes. Also just added the Z06 rear brake ducts. Think I need to get a digital camera.

You are right, there are many pics of black 'vettes out there. Here's one link that should keep you busy for a while.

Being oldschool I think black cars need chrome wheels the black on black is a mean look but not enough contrast for me. Mine are c6z06 chrome in stock sizes from Bob's house of wheels.
