Default NEW PRODUCT: 2009 Z06 Spyder Wheels Competition Grey ON MY CAR...

Well, it has been a LONG day but I finally got the wheels (fronts at least, pick up the rears tomorrow) mounted with some pics.

Not the best pics, I went to the mall to get "6LE" decals made so I snapped a few before I went in and a few afterwards. These rims are NIGHT AND DAY compared to the old ones.

If you want to "modernize your muscle" talk to me about a set, I'm a dealer of these and other Vette style rims for F-Bodies

I posted all the pics (too many to post here, there is a limit) here:

http://6litereaterdesigns.com/forum/...sg8820#msg8820

Here's some teasers...







A shot comparing old style Z06 wheels to the new ones...

Actually, my rear ones WERE black. Tried it, looks like crap. TOO much black on an already dark car.

Mike (Sommer86) however saw these and went ape ****, I'm pretty sure he'll have a set of black ones as soon as they are in stock (I bought the last two. Grey was out of stock for 9.5" so I bought black and am having my painter match the fronts)...

I have your e-mail and have the info finally so should have an answer tomorrow when I am not loopy

I really like those, what are the offsets? Those would look killer with a huge brake set.

Looks good. 2 questions though;

1. More or less how much do the wheels weigh compared to a 09 factory wheel?
2. And would there be some alternative to the way lug nut caps stick out?

Yeah, I need different lugs... I'm using factory acorns which are wrong. I need flat bases (these bevel at bottom) and then I have the covers on which add a good 1/4"-1/2".

I will get black shorties asap
