Default Black 17x9.5' replica Z06's on a silver WS6?

Just like it says guys, I found a set of these for CHEAP. (200 bucks to be exact.) Supposedly only one has a small inch of rash on one and the guy will spin them on the rack to prove they aren't bent, etc. Anyone have any thoughts/opinions on that combo on a 2000 silver WS6. I have the stock chrome 17s right now and I'm just bored with them. I think for the price these wheels can't be beat. Plus I should just be able to run the tires I have on my old wheels?(275/40/17s) I was thinking of going to a 295 Nitto 555R on the back though. Anybody have any advice? Thanks!

i absolutely hate black rims... pretty much explains what i think..

you can get a nice set of aftermarket rims for around 600 bucks shipped.. thats the route i would take.. set yourself apart some.

Touche salesman, touche I wouldn't mind a set of EVO's or maybe some Iforged, but I'm going budget on the wheels right now haha. For 200 bucks there hard to beat!!!

NICE. I just blew some cash on my cam/pushrods/springs/new TB/LS6 intake, and i still have to pay for the install/tune , so I'm going to be hurting for mod money a little haha
still....those are pretty much a sure thing for me in the near future. i LOVE those wheels, seriously.
Lemons, feel free to keep breathing my air another day. You just earned it
