Default Red TA w. black/machined Z06's - Pic/Photoshop Request

I have a red LT1 Trans Am and am in the market for some new wheels. Has anyone seen these on one before?



*C6 Z06 type with black powdercoat and machined face* More pics at link below:

I've alway liked to look of the machined surface w. black wheels but cannot quite picture this combo on a TA. Can anyone provide a pic or photoshop to help me visualize this one?

I also like the look of these a lot too. What are your thoughts on the two?

Unfortunately I don't. I am on my work computer and all the photos of my car are in another state. Exterior is a standard red LT1 TA though...

I actually just noticed that OE Wheels has a post going requesting photos of ppl with their wheels and that helped, but I would still like to see these on a red TA.

without black accents the first will look odd imo but it kinda depends on the theme and future appearance mods you have planned for the car. with a ceta, dark tint, and black emblems the first would look sick. i would say painted calipers are a must with both cuz if not stock ugly calipers and rusty rotors will be staring you in the face...

My windows are tinted, I do have black decals all arounds, and I have upgraded to LS1 brakes which I filed smooth and painted red with black decals. Hmmmm, and I also removed the side moldings. I think that about covers my exterior mods.

yeah i have the black spokes w/ machined lip and i had to paint the calipers. Only issue i had with the OE Wheel products were the lug nuts. I ordered the black ones to go with my black rims, they came in an envelope and they were plain steel spraypainted black and the paint looked aweful up close and most of it flaked off before i ever got them installed.

There's a car I see in my neighborhood every now and then with the rims from the first post, and they look great, but his car is white. I'd be interested to see it on a red car

here is a pic but ill try to get some better ones now that the car is a garage queen. This is still with the black lugs, (the new ones are still in a box in the back seat). You can kinda see what i mean about the tire size not being right.
