I am using the Z51 OEM tires. Stretch is very mild and hardly noticeable. I think the wheels looks great and the fitment is perfect. For the price you can't beat them.

I think the side view looks great,....But the rear wheels appear to be too wide....sticking out about an inch past the side of the rear wheel well...and the rear tire looks stretched....a lot.....

Front wheel fitment looks good.

Thanks. The stretch is very mild. I don't like tires that are too meaty. The white C7 with the black XOs running 265s/305s doesn't look good to me. The tires are too fat and bulgy for my taste.

IMO the perfect tire for this set up are 255s/295s. That's what I'll get when mine wear out.

As far as the rear wheel, I like a tiny bit of poke. It gives the car a more aggressive look.

Actually the perfect setup are the size and tires that come on the Z51. Anything wider is for looks only IMHO.

I was referring to the perfect tire sizing for the XO wheels to fit without stretch.

The silver XO is a brushed face with a satin silver painted between the spokes. Brushed is similar to a machined face except is does not have as much sheen to it.
Here is a close up of the finish.

Do you have any more information about the oring gasket? What size? Where can I get it? I have a set of Z51 caps that I want to put on and see how they look.

Thanks

Hmmm...ok. Thank you for that info.

I was actually looking for the finish/color like the OEM machine faced were like. Seems they have some black on them.

Thank you!

Communication will be much faster if you go to their website, find their number and give them a call.

How does black wheel match to carbon flash trim??? Would there be a need to re finish or is it close enough?
