Thanks everyone for the positive reviews.. To answer the question they are 19'' Ruff Racing 278's in a hyper black finish.

I may have posted this before but....you must be a member of the wheel-of-the-month club or something. When I first joined this forum, you had a set of zr1's and were selling them for some c5 z06's, then next thing I know you had a set of 19" somethings (ADR's maybe?), now these. You're starting to tick me off!!!

J/K

What did you do with the last set. I really liked those.

Well, I think these are going to best my last set because of the fact that I love them soo much. My wife actually got me the z06's because I liked them.
My last set of 19'' Axis, I got a phone call saying "how much do you want for them?" so, those are gone and I got these..

Bringing this thread back lol

Glad you like the wheels! Almost all my friends were mad at me for selling them. I think they look much more at home on a TA.
