I would prefer aluminum or stainless steel accents, specially in a black car.

Car looks awesome! Not a fan of the wheels but the black on black and WS6 formulas are just sex.

i like chrome on a black car too but i think it might make the gunmetal bb stripes and accents look out of place, im kinda swaying toward the black.

I would go in black chrome IMO! Just my opinion, if its a Pontica, I wouldn't put Chevy wheels. Black chrome some WS6 wheels. Nice car, wheels have to go.

dude, please do not leave from black wheels, that looks rediculously clean as it sits. if you're going to switch wheels, I definitely vote to do whatever rims you choose in all black

Awesome car, no matter what wheels you choose. Love WS6 Formulas. Wish I'd never sold mine.

thanks guys.

crimson, your car is one of the inspirations for my car and one of the reasons i want the C6 Z06 DD wheels, your car looks great with them. iv also stole some engine bay ideas from you, ill get some pics of my engine bay later after i give her a bath. one of the reasons for getting new wheels is because the tires on these are way to skinny(235) and i have no traction in 1st or 2nd. i want some meat out back. prolly run a 275 up front and at least a 295 out back.

metalmilitia, iv been looking for some factory chrome, non speedline ws6 wheels for a long time but nobody wants to give them up. they are the best looking factory wheels for these cars. i think cars like these need wheels with lips on them, it looks way more aggressive.
