Hey Will, wheels look great!~ They will look great on the car now that the Z06 quarter panels are on so come get your car and we will put the wheels on. Now all you have to do is go to the Vette Doctors and get the Procharger put on and you'll be faster than the Z06.

Maybe I am blind, but I really don't see much of a difference between the factory painted wheels and the new color.

Just my opinion but you should have started this with a painted set instead of a polished set and saved a few hundred dollars. Looks kind of nice but for what it is worth they appear like OEM painted now.

As for me I love the polished Z wheel
