They are OEM C6 Grand Sport wheels that I had powder coated dark charcoal (look black except in the sun, probably a little too dark). Rears are 305/30/19. Fronts are 245/40/18. The fit is perfect in my opinion. Also running LG GT2 coilovers to get the stance where I wanted it.
The stance is what makes the car look perfect. And thank you for not having the C6 emblems on the wheels

... and no red calipers. Car looks great imho, Silver with black wheels, tint, blacked-out tails, great stance and whl/tire fitment. Whether the wheels are truly "black" or not, as mentioned, they look good.

Really like those wheels on your car. You say they're 18 & 19's, where did you find them? What width are they and did you need any spacers?

They're stand C6 Coupe sizes/offsets. No spacers or anything else needed. Got them put on at Corvettes of Houston back in 2013. Only issue was the "o-rings" around the TPMS / valve stems. Once that was remedied, notta problem since. No slow leaks, nuthin'.

Thanks for the info. I'll be doing some research now. They really look good.
