I like it! I almost changed to black wheels, but stayed with chrome.

The Irony after so many post...9 pages deep...now you wanna be “just messing around” lol oh lighten up man....it’s just silly man. Why not just be cool from post one that Fred made? Why not say...nice wheels Fred! Not for me but glad you like them man! Or just nothing at all...move along and comment elsewhere 
Now that you’ve been addressed and called out for being a “get off my lawn grump” pissing on people’s stuff for no reason it’s all “lighten up” or just messing around man...or base vs whatever blah blah blah...
I don’t get it??? Why not just be cool from the beginning and jump into Fred’s post positively or add to the thread or just move along...say noting....🤔 someone explain that...rationally....logically....anyone ...?

Black wheels looks good, kind of compliments the stock silver calibers.

I think the black wheels look fantastic on Torch Red. I also happen to like it on Cyber Grey and Black, but I think it is particularly good on Torch Red. Not so sure about Crystal Red though.

Devil dog during that time frame...

Regardless of our vette difference thats gonna get max respect from this dude. 🇺🇸
Doesn’t change the fact chrome wheels are slow and dated though lol 😂

and that I’m not sure but I’d guess 220+ depending. I’ve been 185 on the street in Mexico and that was barley into 5th gear, I made the 4 to 5 shift around 170-175 was in 5th for a few seconds hit 185 with a whole hell of a lot of room left and that about when I passed the GSX1000 I was racing but had to let out cause the bridge was coming to a turn....what kinda power where you making when you did 200? I’ve seen a few lightly modded C6z hit 201-203ish in the standing mile and that’s awesome but I’m making double the wheel horsepower than the majority so of course well over 200 isn’t as impressive.

Thats awesome man! 200mph club! I take it that was a standing or rolling mile? I’ll say this though...my vette has black wheels and it’s not and if it goes 200...but how far over 200 would it go and that I’m not sure but I’d guess 220+ depending. I’ve been 185 on the street in Mexico and that was barley into 5th gear, I made the 4 to 5 shift around 170-175 was in 5th for a few seconds hit 185 with a whole hell of a lot of room left and that about when I passed the GSX1000 I was racing but had to let out cause the bridge was coming to a turn....

It was from a dead stop,but on a two and 1/3 mile air strip.The only vette I've seen do a 200 mph run at the Tx mile was a tuned ZR1.My is an auto which has the higher gear (272) the last time on the dyno it was close to 595 rwh.....And no i do not do the freeways in Mexico...That is only for guys that don't care for other people's lives.....Those idiots do that a lot around Houston TX.....BTW: What gear do you have in the 3rd member?...185 in 4th gear.??......The 2008 and up was tested by GM at 190 mph but no way in hell it would do that on a one mile strip stock and the C6z at 195 mph with only 505 hp to the crank.
