Default PICTURES NEEDED! C7 Z06 replicas

I just ordered these from OEwheels. When talking to them, They said they have sold tons of them so far but I cant find any pictures anywhere.

Does anyone on here have them in either color?

These are the ones I bought-

I bought a set of flat black for my Z06 but they are not on yet. They look good. Check out this thread on the Corvette Forum, a user has pics with the comp grey on, should give you an idea of what to expect.

I was just looking at these for my black 2000 ss. I would do 18x9.5 in the front and 18x10.5 in the back. I just want to see what they would look like.

I have them at my house and I like how they look...I think they will look good on my Z06. As soon as I have them mounted up I'll put up pics. This is what they are going on...

How heavy are these wheels? Any real weight penalty? Compared to say a stock ws6 wheel??

I photoshopped these on.. Sure hope it looks this good. I tried to make the wheels the same size but I think they ended up being a hair bigger than they should have been
