Can't imagine trying the clean all the rivets. But then I'm an old guy. I've been very happy with the chrome ones on my Pewter car.

I am looking at the same wheels but mostly the black. I am unsure of the rivets though.

I have a Silver 98 Formula and am struggling with wheel choices. Any suggestions would be welcomed.

I'll vote for the black.

Do the chrome Z06s shown have a lip on them? A slight deep dish? For some reason they seem to look deeper than most of the Z06 wheels I have seen.

Anyways, go with the black!

aftermarket 18's at 10.5 and i think you can get 8.5,9.0,9.5 in 17"

haven't seen any z06 11" in either size yet.

Someone had some 20" z06's for sale iirc, i bet they are wide

I like the chrome ones, not a fan of the rivets at all.

I think they both look kick ***, but I kind of would lean more towards the black with rivets.
