Default C6 Z06 Pics needed

Anyone got the C6 Z06 wheels on their car yet? REally looking for pics of them on a t/a but a camaro would work too. I like them alot but usually more then 5 spoke doesn't look to great on a bird IMO.

I saw a set on a 97 SS tonight for the first time. 18s all the way around and holy **** they look better than I thought they would. I got some pics on my camera phone that I'll try to get up.

Those do look good, now just hopefully someone has them on a bird so I can get an idea of what they'd look like on my car. I don't want to spend $800+tires for wheels that may look goofy.

I do have to say, though, that LT1 is screaming for a Big Brake Upgrade. Those rotors look tiny! A 1.5" drop wouldn't hurt either.

for some reason I just dont like them. If I could get my hands on a set of regular grey C5 ZO6 wheels I'd be golden.

I'm going to try to get a set of hyper black Z07 wheels (seen here) mounted on my Z28 this week to see how they look.

I'll post up.

ZaneO, maybe it's my monitor but those look like silver or polished to me. Looks good though.

Wow that TA looks good. Don't see that color very often.

What finish is on the C6 Z06 reproductions you won?
