The Black Chrome makes a nice contrast in spite of being black.
Great CS from Nelson, thanks.

C&7 ZO6 Black Chrome: 18"x10.5" all four points.
315/30/18 R888R on rear & 295/30/18 R888 on front.
15MM wheel spacers.

Looks better in person. The Blk Chrome gives a lot of contrast that you cant capture in a photo.

No rubbing with or without spacers. The spacers put the tires dead even with the fender.

Yes, I did change my studs. At my power level I wanted ARP studs. Now that I think about it (this was a log time ago) I used longer studs as well to insure a good number of turns on the lug (recommended at any power level).
I don't remember the length of the studs nor do I recall the popper number of turns LOL. I do remember being concerned to make that happen. I'm sure a little searching in this forum will turn-up both answers. Hope it helps.

How does the finish of OE wheels hold up over time?

for me: I got a few good years out of my last set of Chromed C6 ZO6 Deep Dish . That was when it was a DD & they saw a lot of daily wear & tear. I was happy with them for many years. I eventually powder coated them "Speedway Gray" & still have them in storage. (For sale if anybody is interested, PM me).

I cant speak to the PVD Black Chrome as they are brand new. I have to say the the quality looks to be top notch & if taken care of I expect to get much life out of these. It was made clear to never use the typical off the shelf wheel cleaners as they have harsh abrasive chemicals that could damage the finish. Simple soap & water for me.

Ive had the black deep dish ZR1 style for over 9 years and the only blemish on them is from I ******* let my lug wrench slip and I put a smaaaaal small nick on one of the edges. Other than that, none of the powder coat has shown any sign of wear. My car is garaged and I've put about 3k miles on it in the last 5 years or so.
