Wheel Help
Hey All
It's been so long since I decided to buy wheels and it has to come to an end. I am asking for wheel advice. I am planning to spend 2500 including everything (4wheels + 2 rear tires (I am planning to use current backs in front) + mounting) I have a white 2000 so I guess black wheels would be very nice.
My question is is there any other choice other than black Z06 rims?
Thanks all

Contact a vendor like House of Wheels, Corvette Garage or Xtreme Motorsports and see what other wheels they may have in black besides the Z06 style. Its a tough choice to make.

that's a pretty tight budget for wheels, but it can be done. I picked up a set of Black Motorsports for $869 shipped, add another ~$900 for Kumho tires and it's will end up being a little less than $1,800, which would leave you a few hundred $ to play with. Like others have said, you're pretty much limited to some type of factory reproduction wheel or used wheels.
House of wheels has had some sales reciently, that's where i got mine.
