those are C6Z06 Wheels. I'm waiting for tires and I'll show Z07 wheels on TA. Z07 wheels are pushed inward in the center just like the old z06 wheels. Hold on lemme go downstairs and take pics of my rims and show you the difference between a Z07 rim and C6

sorry for sounding like an *** its just cuz I don't want the people thinking that Z07 rims are the actual c6 z06 rims its a mesh of the C5andC6 z06 rims and the people that make them gave me good service. Not a sponsor on here so not saying their names

Wow, I've never seen or heard of those before, they look great though. What do they come on? Or from?
I just got tired of the look of the Z06's, they looked great, don't get me wrong, but I was just seeing too many cars with Z06's on them, it was like ZR1's were a couple years back, plus the polished aluminum was a nightmare to keep shiny. Thanks for all the comments!

Yeah I had chrome c5 z06 rims and I sold mine for these. I saw the C6 Z06 wheels and was in love with them and when I was going to place an order on ebay I stubbled across this corvette site and they had these on there. I was like WOW! I called asap and had a set ordered. I got 18x9.5 all the way around when they actually come 18x9.5 in front and 18x11 in rear.

Yeah man those are sweet! I can't wait to see what they look like on your car. What were they called? Can you PM me the site? Just curious about them. I got one hell of a deal on mine. $900 shipped lol
I must say that our digi cam here at work blows and the wheels/car looks MUCH better in person.

Why's that? Do you think the sidewalls would flex so much as to let the wheels hit the ground?

Wow nice. I've heard a few people refer to them as Z07 instead of C6 Z06, I suppose it's a clear way to identify the next generation of Z06 wheels, ya think?

OK then. I guess I'd just say 2006 Z06 wheels, or C6 Z06 wheels. Z07 sounds to me like you are confusing Z06 and LS7. I think they look like they belong on a Grand Touring car like a BMW or a Mercedes Benz instead of a Trans Am. Like they say with most modifications, to each his own

I'll admit I think they aren't quite as 'muscular' as the old Z06's, but I just got tired of them, too many cars with them and they were a bitch to keep shiny. They look much better in person, my digi cam is terrible.
IF you can send me some more pics painted
