if this is a true "candy" color....aka 3 stage paint......you really need to take pics in the direct sunlight to fully capture the look. otherwise, its just kind of a boring garnet color to me lol.

a car with a nice paint job like this definitely needs something that your everyday z06 wheels IMO.....and if this is a true 3 stage candy paint job.....i hope you have an outstanding painter, bc i hear matching candy is TOUGH! spray that type of paint is very hard to do.

Here are some wheels that would work with those tires you have I have the same size on mine. They are from OEwheelsllc.com they are a sponsor I am very happy with my set. I think the little bit of black on them would work very well on that car.
