Looks badass man! I may have to pick up a set of those when they come out with the 18x9.5 size for the fronts.

You guys took some really nice pictures. Again, thanks for taking the time to do this. And yes, that machined black wheel looks great. The set of chrome Z06s look good too as well as the black ZR1s! Really good images guys.

I've been having trouble with getting pics from the back. The lighting just never seems right when I do it, so you can't really see the tire width too well. This is about the best pic I've been able to get from the back so far.

^^^Looks great im about to get that setup in black on my TA. Did you have to run spacer in rear or any mods for them or do they fit well?

Yea, I had to roll the quarter panels and run spacers. I have 295's on there now. The 275's were on the rears for like a week while I waited for the new tires to come in. I should have clarified on that. The 295's fit flush with the rim, no stretch like the 275's had.

Wesmanw02, that's a nice ride. Great angle on the wheels too.

Jdruelle001, we've been looking for that set up in an image. Those rears look mean. Nice photos.

Again, thanks for taking the time to post your images.

That looks better than I thought on NBM! Now I can't decide between gunmetal and chrome for my NBM T/A.

Any issues with ABS or traction control with the staggered sizes?
What size spacers are you running? How much are you lowered?

Sorry for the third degree, but that's almost the exact setup I'm looking at for my car and I want to cover all the bases before ordering.

Would it be possible to get these wheels with this finish combination but without the rivets? Doesn't really match what I'm trying to do with my car.
