Those are sharp wheels as they sit, looks like you'll need new tires tho. I would be nervous about the damged wheel, you can't really see in the picture what the damage is....

Good luck with your search. I like those wheels.

I think they will look good, but don't paint them black. I have been browsing the forums for a deal on some wheels for months, and I see black wheels for sale more than any other kind. People seem to get tired of them faster than anything else, and start wanting something that gets more attention. No offense to anyone with black wheels, I like them too, just pointing out what I have noticed.

For some reason those remind of someones wheels on here.
He owns a green LT1, and his wheels are matte black or flat black. Theyre a lighter version of a zr1 I think. Man I came across a pic like that a few weeks ago. I should have saved it. =[ Theyre expensive too!
