Default Any pictures of competition grey c6z06 rims on c5z06?

I've tried looking for this combo but couldn't really find it. I've found comp grey c6z06 wheels on other color cars and other color wheels on c5z06s

It's the combo I would really like to get but want to see it first ya know? I think it would look really mean/sporty

Oh yeah, the older style c6z wheels, not the new spyders (still cool, but i think they were a downgrade)

Probably a silly question but I'm assuming 18x9.5 in front and 19x11 out back in those style wheels would clear c6z06 brakes?

Anyways, here's some of the pictures I found, just not on a black car...

thanks for the shop, it gives me a little better idea. The ones pictured are repros of the 06-09ish z06s with c5 offsets. Ones straight off of a c6z would stick out

Black with comp grey looks sick...I must say. I just have to have everything lowered. When the gap on the sides is smaller than the gap on top it looks akward. Has to be even all around or slightly smaller on top.

The color looks great on the c5 z06, I would love to see the spider in competition grey on a black z06. Anyone have a picture or photoshop of this?

To the OP: I can only imagine it would look sick on black. If you get these wheels please post pics, you have me very interested.

Does anyone know if the 18/19 combo will clear any BBK's?

Those wheels are just a natural on that car...they look perfect. Those were 17/18?
