Default ZO6's On an LT1 Trans AM?

Anybody have any pictures of this? I found a cheap set of chrome Zo6 rims and was wondering if I should go for it but It's hard to picture them on there. Any examples?

I like what you got on there now, but if you were to change them, i would probrably only go with some 17 inch firehawk rims...

I wish I could find some of my rims in chrome. How much would it be to have them chrome plated or polished. Is there anything i can do? I also LOVE the C5 wheels.

actually his rims are more of a gunmetal--they look sweet on green.

I'm getting 18x9.5 Z06 rims all the way around in trade for my stock rear end and old tail lights. Is there a Zo6 rim size that i can fit a 315 Tire on?

not going to get a 315 on an 8.5" wheel. The narrowest you can go is 10.5"

No problem man. I actually have a pic of a set of 18" chrome Z06 wheels on an LT1 Z, (a guy from a local forum I'm on) They look pimp as Hell on his car.

12.6" section width is pretty wide man. You might have to do alot of massaging for those, and a 10.5" wheel won't cut it, that's too small.
