Something tells me your fronts don't match...or else you would've shown them!

So, do they all match.... huh...huh??

Looks good regardless. I'm a sucker when it comes to a set of z06's on a T/A

nope, in correct forum, if i needed a full detail on how to measure my rims or something i would have posted in wheels. this belongs in appearance sence my car does appear different now with new wheels. and as per the sticky, i did try there and got no REAL help so i figured if i had my APPEARANCE pictures posted maybe i would throw that in there real quick. im glad to see that everyone likes them, i would have more pics but i just put rims on real quick to see how they look and i dont have fronts yet.
i figured everyone would say something as to the ceta,bird,and T/A is all black and the rims being grey/gunmetal that it was off, personally i like it.. thanks guys!!

Keep them comments comin
You Might need an adjustable panhard bar to center your rear. I know you just put different springs in the back so that might be messing you up. That happened to me with my 17x11 ZR1s so I got a new bar, adjusted it, and it works a lot better now.

sorry phantom didnt mean to overstep my bounds.

so let me get this right, a technical question about wheels belongs in the wheels section, but an apperance question about wheels belongs in the apperance section... check

so why do we get post like:
"New Hp Racing Wheels put on the Z*PICS INSIDE*
"Poll: What wheels look better"
"So do you think the new Dale Earnhardt Jr rims would look good on our cars?"

in the wheels section. If those posts qualify for the wheels/tires section then this one would too... not trying to be a dick just defending myself for the above comment. /rant

back on subject - i love zo6 wheels on fbods
