quick poll! Which wheels for my SS!!
quick poll! Which wheels for my SS!! ok, i have an arctic white 01 SS... i can pick up either chrome or black z06 motorsport in 17's and i can swap my new 275's on to them, OR silver C6 (18/19 combo)wheels, tires, adapters, OR silver C6 Z06 wheels(18something/19x12) no tires.. he has 295 35 19's but i think it will be too skinny for a 12 inch rim.. i thought the C6 Z06 was 19x10 though.. also will the two later wheels give me a hard time fitting on the camaro? stock ride height in back, adjustable Qa1's and 300lb drag springs up front... will 1.25 adapters work? or two inch better?
Mind you my car is H/C/6 speed/12 bolt... and i do enjoy spirited driving, and eventaully the drag setup is going for something lower and curve friendly...
THANKS FOR THE INFO/INPUT PLEASE!

Color should match the front fenders and door as well as the hood seeing as all 3 are plastic/fiberglass. I see what he's talking about, the mirrors look like they were black and didn't get enough white shot over them.
yeah as far as i know they were always white. might be the lighting, wasnt to sunny, now ive got to go inspect them! i forgot how dirty white is all the time, i hate it! yeah i might keep them 10's for some odd reason i like them alot.. ive ran them on my old 01 S10 xtreme, and they looked killer.

I would lower it and paint the spokes black or gunmetal, something dark. But leave the lip and inbetween the spokes silver or atleast repaint them silver to freshen the wheels up a little.
yeah i might lower it, i just want a decent ride, the qa1's all around suck esp. with 300lb drag springs up front, just doesnt feel right and major body roll going around curves...hell even going 30 round a 25 curve i feel it..
Id like to go all black, but i was thinking silver face/lip and black inbetween... but i need other wheels to use cause this is my DD and i only have one set of rims/tires.

You could do it on a Saturday or a day that you don't have anything going on. My car is my DD for now and thats what I do. But with what you said about the Black inbetween, are you trying to go for an LE wheel look? I thought about taking my C5's off if I could find 3 more LE wheels cause I have one for when one of my painted SS's got bent and found the LE wheel in a junk yard and they only wanted $75 for it.
yeah i work nights and with a new baby im fried.. might be a bit, but ill get it to go, i took my grill off today and cut the styrofoam out in the opening.. think i want to mask off the car and paint the whole grill area gloss black and the plastic intake cover on the scoop gloss black too..
