Thanks, I liked them right away for several reasons. The black looks aggressive, but the whole wheel isn't black (do not like all black rims), and so it hides the brake dust and the grime around the lug nuts. Also it has sharper edges than a stock C6 rim, which makes it look aggresive.
Dean, those wheels look great! I must admit that I am very happy to be the one taking yours stockers off your hands. You have been a great person to deal with. I just ordered some tires today to go with your old wheels and can't wait to have them mounted on my 99Z.

Richard, do you have to remind me that I sold my 69 Stingray with a 427 and side pipes?
Also, I just have to turn a couple of bolts to lower my car...Muhahahahaha! Chevy was on the ball, you can adjust it at the track. You just need a jack and a wrench.

And thanks to everyone for your comments, good or bad. It seems the majority of people like them so far. Most important is that I love them.
