Cool Pics of RPM 505 and C6 Z06 please.

Well I'm thinking about buying some wheels with my tax return because I need new tires anyway. I can't decide between the RPM 505's or the C6 Z06's. So if anyone has input or pictures they can post it would be greatly appreciated.

They're going on a LPM ss convertible (black top) with black hockey sticks and manta stripe. I'm getting 18's but pictures of 19's are ok just so I can get an idea.

Only chrome for the Z06's
Chrome and hypersilver for the RPM 505's

Ok people who's ready for some shame free picture whoring?

Thanks for the input. I'm leaning toward the RPM's. Not sure though. I also cannot decide between chrome or hypersilver if I end up going with them.

Oh i agree, but the mesh wheels always look to small in 18 IMO.
The HP Evos i had on my Camaro were 18's and it was slammed, they still looked a tad too small.
remember, they make a pretty mean 19'' drag radial these days lol

I'm getting 18's for a few reasons (roads around here, price of tires, and a few more). I like those 505's. I'm still not sure on hypersilver or chrome. I love when my ZR1's are shined up real nice but I'm not sure a mesh wheel will look good in chrome.

Yeah I know they will be hard to keep clean. I'm prepared to deal with that if I get them.

I need the drool face for this.

I'm going to go with the 505's for sure. But I really am having a hell of a time picking between chrome and hypersilver.

DO NOT BUY FROM WHEELSNEXT.com. I ordered rpm r505's from them on feb 11, as of mar 16 they still do not have my wheels. Look up just a few online reviews of their company and you will see what I mean. They told me when I ordered over the phone to expect it to take 20 days because they had to order my wheels. 18 days later I called bc I hadnt gotten a tracking number yet. They told me they still didnt have them. Told me they were scheduled to be in "no later than March 10". I called back March 12 and they still werent in, told me end of week. I called back March 16, after arguing with the first idiot who answered the phone I hung up and called back. The guy on the phone tells me they ordered the wrong size, so they upgraded me from 18 to 19's and they are supposed to ship out tomorrow. Im not holding my breath, if I dont have a tracking number tomorrow Im starting the process to get my money back. Trust me, google online reviews and read any of them and your going to see my story over and over again. They are a RIP OFF. Wish someone would have told me before I gave them $1200!
