Picture Request
My dad and I are trying to decide what wheels to go with on his artic white 09 c6 targa. We are trying to keep it OEM.
So far looked at C6 Zr1 reps in gloss black. Thats it really. I was wondering if anyone has Zr1 reps on there c6 and if so , can you post some photos along with where you got them.
Also was interested in C6 Grandsport wheels , also if anyone is running them on a c6 coupe (NOT GS) , please post. Here's the site we are looking at.

I'd definitely look into the OEM 19/20 inch "Cup" style wheels in either silver or black. Those are the best OEM wheel ever offered on a Vette, in my opinion (and many others).

yeah you can serach wheels like that on google, usually on monoblocks or cast wheels, the face is PCd one way and the rest of the wheel, barrel and lip, the other. Sport muscle makes the OEM GS wheel is like that.
my next set i'm trying to go Gloss black barrel and lip and a anodized bronze center, something like this.

Dark Shadow Gray. Painted.
Black is played out and adds no depth of color. IMO.
