Default What rims do I have?!

i bought this car and long story short, have no idea what kind of rims are on there. They are pretty awesome IMO and I would really like to know just for personal reference. plus, im thinking about doing a gunmetal paint scheme on my car and picking up some C5 Z06 rims, maybe doing a trade. identifying my rims would probly help sell them or trade.

American Racing Rebels. They look like 18" to me. If they are 18" their specs would be either:

18x10 with +41 offset; or
18x9 with +25 offset.


C6 ZO6 spyders in gunmetal look badass

Sweet! Someone told me they were AR rims, but I couldnt find em anywhere. I like the gunmetal C5 Z06 rims and the rear bumper delete painted the same color since my car is black. take the white stripes off. would look awesome, at least it does in my head. lol

there are markings on the back that say 17, maybe coincidence. but my tires are 275/45/17 in the back and 245/50/17 I believe in the front.

My mistake. They are 17". That means they are 17x9 with +25 offset. So basically 5.5" backspacing.

Here's an LT1 with the wheels you want



And a blue TA with them



They will definitely look good with stripe delete and ceta panel painted same as wheels.

Gunmetal blackbird stripes look good on black TAs

paint the centers of yours gunmetal or have them powdercoated...c5z wheels pale in comparison and are a dime a dozen

personally, I think the blocky spoke design of the c5z looks dated to the early 90s (even though they were used later)
