From a fellow LT1 owner...that looks awesome! very nice clean car and good job with the pics. Oddly enough I was considering painting my polished OEM C6's gunmetal but that looks really nice with the lip. 17/18 size is a great choice too. Any chance you could give details on the finish and a pic of just the wheel?

Yes they are the morchxn ebay c6 deep dish wheels. I was a little hesitant at getting em at first but I just love the design, and after putting em on I'm glad I got em. The finish is gunmetal with polished lip. After putting the 295's on back and lowering it, it looks awesome.

Goodyear eagle f1's. I think 295's are perfect for 10.5 wide wheels. Friend of mine has 305's on a 10.5 wide wheel and it bubbles slightly. The 295's are perfectly flush with the lip.
