They are just the C5 wagon wheels painted black, with the lip left silver

I'm not usually a big fan of ground fx, ($.02) but.........I really like the way yours looks. Nice touch on the wheels.

HMM Really amazing. Props on creativity I would have NEVER put that package together but now that I see it I'm really impressed!

On a side note that is the RK spoiler right? What lowering springs did you use and how is it driving around scrapping etc? I have the factory GFX and with a RK front spoiler and really want to lower it but I'm afraid to go more than an inch. What do you think?

Yea the front lip is an RK Sport. I am on sportlines and i rarely scrape my front lip. I pnly have scraped it once where you can actually see it. This happened the other day because i didnt angle a huge dip right, You have to drive carefully, but if you do u will have more than enough clearance.

It's nice to see someone else doing something different! I did the same thing with my old ZR1s.

Cool so say with a pro kit or another spring with 1.5 inch drop I shouldn't have any problem. You can see the vette is low so I'm used to driving pretty low cars

I was going to say - those wheels look a hell of a lot better painted. One of the first productive things I've seen come out of those wagon wheels...

damn, that looks nicer than I thought it would, I was going to do the same to my stupid wagon wheels but didnt think it was worth the effort, I'm still up in the air weather I want the black Z06motorsports(heavy as a bitch=slow) or the stock Z06 wheels(performance>looks), until I can make up my mind I may have to try them painted....

I think the grey(stock Z06) wheels look good. And they are suppost to be pretty light too.

C5 wheels look alot better then i expected.
