Wheels...i cant decide!...post up your pics!
 
Ok guys and gals...been lookin on the net now for 2 weeks tryin to make a decision on a set of rims for my black coupe...and still cant make up my mind. I got to get tires also so i got to watch my spendin. My ultimate choice is the CCW 505s...but there wayy outa my price range. So...with that being said....post up a pic of your vette with a decent shot of your rims and let me know what kind and size they are...that might give me a better idea. Thanks everyone!..LET THE PICS BEGIN! :D:rock::smash:::cheers:

I am in the same boat as you. I got tired of looking at hundreds of different wheels over the past month and ended up ordering the very first set I looked at....My car is black as well and I was torn as to whether or not to get black rims, they do look tough on the black corvettes!

I'm also trying to sell my "old" rims. They're chrome C6 wheels in C5 sizes. I'm asking $600 for the rims. Here's some pics if you're interested.

Disregard the skinny tires in that last pic. Wheel and tire shop installed the wrong tire size. Got that fixed.

My gosh, those black rims look incredible against that red! Nice switch for sure........

Looks good. Thanks for the post :thumbs:

Thanks for the compliment! I think the same blk/red rims would look awesome on a black vett. Get some red calipers too... It'd look pretty darn good imo :)

My suggestion is try to buy a high quality set of wheels in very good used condition. I bought my HRE 545's for about $2500. with tires from another forum member. I tend to stay away from Asian made wheels. I have had bad experiences with them....

C6 split spoke take offs... Got them for $300 from a friend had them painted pearl black. Run a 1/4 spacer in the rear and have been problem free :thumbs:

You made the right decision on wheels. Your car looks outstanding. :thumbs: I've already got nice iForge wheels, but I'm going to have them painted black w/red stripe, just like yours, soon. On a black car, it's been done, and I don't care. Love the black wheels! The pinstripe is the icing, for sure.

Thank you very much for the compliment, I'm really glad to be getting good feedback from the forum members. Black and red rims are just a classic "cool" :cool: I'd really like to see pics of your car when it's done:thumbs: thanks again :cheers:
