I like the idea but I don't think they match well with pewter/the rest of your black accent theme. Theyd look better color matched to the car imo.

Nice to see different though

Love the wheels (and your car) just not sure the color combo works. The wheels would look great on my NBM/Oak vert.

They really look great on your Vette.
They remind me of the wheels on the Trans Ams of the late seventies.
Very similar.

I have to agree with these fellas. I love the gold and the wheel choice. There is just alot going on with your color scheme and it wouldn't be my taste to add in yet another color. It just doesn't tie together for me. But your car, and kudos to you for being different.

I have always liked the look, I've thought of re-doing my Classics like that. The only suggestion I would make is that I would do a clear gloss coating on the centers. Pardon my opinion.

I ended up getting the wheels powder coated black and re painting the car a few months ago.
