Default Check out my wheels!!!

I have had Black ZR1's for a while now and wanted a different look. I wasnt sure about these wheels on a Camaro, but I ended up liking them alot. here's how it looked before:



after:







These are C6 ZO6 wheels. 18x9.5 in front/18x10.5 in back. My friend ended up liking this setup so much that he went and bought a set afterwards lol I know alot of people don't like the Red insert on my hood, but it has grown on me, so its staying. Im also planning on Painting the Calipers Red.

Now you should put a chrome grill on it to match the wheels! That would be sick!

Looks a lot better with the new wheels. Did you need spacers for the rear or did they go right on.

the new wheels look good, get it tinted and add the billet grill and you will have one very sharp car.

Thanks for the compliment guys. No I didnt use spacers but had to do a LFH mod, and instead of folding the inner quarter panel, I trimmed it.

I have a similar thread where everyone blasted me for taking the black ZR1's off. I just don't like black wheels so these are a nice improvement. Good choice.

Default Wheels

NIce wheels, the contrast between the black & chrome really set the car off!
