Default machined-face anniv. wheels?

where can i get some? does anyone make them in 18" sizes? 10.5/11" wide? anybody know anything?....i don't like the way my TT2's make the car look. those, coupled with the berger panel and the carbon fiber grill give it a "halloweeny" look....i'm wanting to do an external makeover and the wheels gotta go...


thanks,
ben

Do you have to have anniversary wheels??? The machine face Z06 wheels are pretty badass.

Check out the machined Z06 rims. I just bought a set of 17.9.5 and they look almost identical to the Anniversary rims.

I bought a spare set of the 35th LE wheels from GM parts direct and they looked nice.

thanks for the flood or replies guys i've considered the Z06's too......and i WOULD consider trading the TT2's for some...mine need back tires, but are fine other than that. they are 17x11" rears also.

i knew the 35th/Z06's don't just come in 10.5/11" sizes, i was going to send 2 off and have them widened. not sure where...but i'll figure something out.

while we're at it, i'd like to see more cars with 35th/Z06 machined face wheels. i'd prefer to see a SOM SS with some, but i can photoshop the car SOM if it has everything else i want....so post up whatever other pics you can!

thanks guys.
