The Z06 like I said is a 2009. It is a 2LZ model with Navigation. Has 8,500 miles and is a GM Certified Pre-Owned vehicle. The car came with Chrome wheels but for some reason the previous owner swapped on the Silver wheels it sits on now. It does have new rubber though(INVOs). My plan is to find a set of Competition Grey wheels and swap them on. I think it will look great.

I'll get some more pictures as the car progresses. I just snapped these quickly after it was dropped off today. LMK what you think!





I have the twin of your car, congrats !!!

To me the cyber grey wheels look to close to the color of the car, I like the contrast of the silver wheels. Check out the 2012 Cup wheels, they come in flat black and a machined finish. I'm looking into getting these for my car. Check out my garage for pics of my Z.

Those wheels look way better than the chrome or grey. Keep em.

Beautiful beautiful car!!! Congratulations!!

The cyber grey with the comp grey wheel combo is what sold me on the cyber grey over velocity yellow. If you cant get those wheels you can get yourself a set of wheels and have the lip or the wheel center painted cyber grey for a direct match as Jersey Jay so eloquently did on my 09 cyber grey before I purchased it from him not so long ago.

Hmmm. I looked at this car and almost bought it until I discovered it had been wrecked and has a cracked frame.

Just kidding. Great car. Enjoy.

Those silver spyders looked like machined aluminum at night under the artificial lights. It was these wheels that sold me on my car, otherwise I would have kept looking.
