Default Black Z06 Motorsport rims on RED Camaro SS (pics)

So I have installed 17x9.5 front and 18x10.5 rear Black Z06 Motorsport Rims with rivets and polished lip from Tom Z Wheels. It's my ultimate goal to have a red/black theme

I must say I'm very happy with the way it turned out. Also, my car is lowered 1"

Next mod: Black HALO headlights and black smoked corner lights. I already bought those and just need to install

I have before and after pics below...

BEFORE



AFTER

its illegal here too. but so are many other things about our cars. It sucks to get the ticket for tint/no front LP etc. but overall I think its worth it. either way. Clean ss.

Thats why when you smell bacon you roll down the windows! I'm in IL also and I think that almost all states have window tint on the ban list, but that's not stoppin' anyone!

i spoke with Tom Z over the phone about those exact same style of rims....how do they look. like the gloss and everything look good? and did you get the warranty also? i'm pretty tempted in buying a set but not totally sure yet.

Are you trying to sell the SS wheels by any chance? Or keeping them around?
