Have any pictures of the Hyperblack ones?

They look like a cleaned up version of the Z06 rims...which works for me, as I really like the Z06 rims.

The wheels look pretty good. If you are representing this company this thread is likely to get locked as spam. You should contact a moderator to look into becoming an approved forum vendor....if you don't..sorry.

Those look exactly like what the new C6 Z06 wheels will look like from the recent spyshots. Looks like someones been doing some corporate espionage.
