You may want to try and see if Bob at House of Wheels has any pics of these on cars. I haven't seen any posts where the wheels have been put on cars yet.

I was browsing through the forums the other night, and came across a guy that had black ones on a yellow car (what I want to do) but as I said, they werent the best quality. Ive got some pics from Bob already, and their good pictures, but not very many pics, nor a lot of angles Id like to see pics of.

These are the pics that I saw about a week ago, and rumor has it GM had the various forum admins pull the pics.

I've seen several pics of these wheels. They look structurally similar to CCW wheels in that they have a deep lip from the edge of the wheel to where the spokes start...other than that they are just regular Z06 style.

The pics that I got were from Bob at house of wheels...I'm sure he has more.

Thanks,but those aren't the "2001-2004 Z06 wheels in 18x12" we are looking for. Yes,I know those are 335's and CCW's on there,but most of us have seen those setups already on other cars.

Please....anyone.....snap some pics please! I don't know why it's so hard to do that,especially vendors who's been selling these for months now but never have decent pics.
