Default Which rims for my Z

I have a 2000 Pewter Z28 with a black vert, black halos, smoke clear corners, black tail panel, and black hockey stripes, the short ones. I would like to know which rims do you guys think would look best on the z. No pics of the car but you can imagine.

Black Z06s

I'd say Black Z06's, the other wheels look a bit too funky for a Camaro IMO.

i think they look good on other cars but the evos wont match very well since everything is pewter and black on my car, i think that z06s would look great though

i would definetely watch out for the black z06's if you haven't bought them yet, because MOST of the z06's iv'e seen on ebay are generic, hard to find the actually chevy ones. i like how your going with something different (minus the z06's) because everybody on this board basically have the same wheels. but the evo's are too flashy IMO. Try to something in between too flashy but not too dull, kinda like the attachment, although i heard they were a bit expensive. (hope it's ok i use your vette whoever's it is, if not tell me and i will remove the picture)

several people have bought from this seller on ebay and praise him so i see no problem with the rims, i just really want gloss black rims and the evos dont offer it, the rims on the vette look great but not on a vert camaro imo. Just had to get opinions before i went and bought anything. I do like the evos but no black, errr.
