Help identifying wheels

I have a photo of a Z06 that I've used as the desktop for my computer for quite some time. I really love the wheels on this car and am not sure if they are stock or aftermarket???

Can anyone help me identify these wheels? They appear to have the chrome trim which is just what I'm wanting for my black 2010 coupe.

Thanks in advance for any help...

Cray Mantas are close, but not that exact wheel.

Based on the angle of the photo I'd say that they are OZ Botticelli III wheels. They are sold through Tirerack.

In a quick internet search I found this photo of what appears to be a Z06 with the chrome version of the same wheel.

Great find Paul.

To the OP, I wouldn't want the job of cleaning those wheels.

I think the responders point was you were stating the obvious by in fact restating the OP's question.

Yes Sir: Mr. Talon90......you got it right. I blew up the photo and I can even see the OZ on the center of the wheel in my photo. Thanks so much for your help.

I sure wish I didn't have such "expensive" tastes though. That is one expensive set of wheels.....
