Picture request..

Anybody have a Pewter C5 with gunmetal grey (or similar) wheels.
I'd really like to see what that looks like.

Thanks, Bryan

I have a pewter and a few years ago I thought about gun metal gray and I decided that it took away from the classy pewter color in my opinion, I think a nice forged wheel works well.

Pewter has made me re-think my ban on any silver cars in my future.

I agree with Mr Bill. I like a brighter wheel also. I like the polished or machine finished aluminum best. I was looking at color options a while back too and considered gunmetal.

For pictures, The first picture is my FRC with the Z06 wheels. Not quite gunmetal, but a dark argent color.

The second picture is someone else's picture from this forum with gunmetal wagon wheels. I'm sorry I don't remember who's car, but I thought it looked good and was a good example of the gunmetal wagons.
