Default Added ZR1 Cup wheels....

BIG thanks to Rich, Nick, and Tony at Abel for helping me get this done and quickly too!

Rolling on a set of '13 ZR1 Cup wheels. Forged, lightweight, OEM. 19/20
285 up front 335 out back. Michelin PS2 ZP tires. Wheels are silver with a machined/polished face. I'm a big fan of silver wheels, especially as so many people have black wheels. I looked for a while but couldn't find any other C6's with this combo, so I tried it and love it!

I like your style,I didn't realize they had these wheels just had to do a google search to better understand about the ZR1 Cup wheels. I get what your saying about black wheels, cars are even coming from the factory with black wheels. How ever for my style I like chrome.

I agree, them some great skates. I am still proud of my '01 C5's factory option magnesium wheels. I gotta get some decent pics of my convertible posted. Probably not a lot of those 14-year-old mag mags with their unique color left. Looks great on a mellinium yellow car. Sorry, didn't mean to hijack the thread. Well, that's half true anyway.

these look amazing, im a fan of Black wheels but this looks clean. if you still want something different then you might be able to paint the insides of the wheel black and leave the face of the wheel silver. like these.

again i feel like the z is perfect as is and i was just throwing an idea out there.
