That will look great with your silver paint.
Did you consider painting your brackets as well? I was talked into that and I'm glad I did.

MSG C5 I thought about it and I was trying to decide on keeping it black, going red or silver for the brackets. But I do like the way yours look and those are my favorite wheels on the C5.

Did you paint them while they were on the car? I want to do my wife's car but can't decide how I want to go about it or how much I want to spend.Powder coated with new drilled and slotted rotors would be great but that is alot of money.
