Default Anyone have Argent (dark grey) w/ polished lip C5 ZO6 wheels?

I have mine in chrome. To me the argent/silver looking finish looks completely stock and plain on the c5 z06 rims. If they were in some kind of pepper black/grey color they'd look much better IMO.

Had them on my car for a while. They're really nice wheels, recently sold them to another guy on the forum. They're the ones in my sig. The gray isn't as dark as I would've liked, they're pretty true to the stock zo6 argent though.

^Yeah, like the guy said they kinda aren't dark enough. I wouldn't mind seeing what a set painted would look like, with a darker pepper gray or something.

Yeah Mike, I love my SLP ZR1's. But I just want a change. No more chrome.

I'm gonna do BFG KDW 275 40 17 up front and BFG DR's 295 35 18 on the rear.

I think Mikey wants to change his wheels now too LOL.

Do they have these in the 18x9.5/18x10.5 combo? I looked all over but couldn't find them.

Nice wheels, but I'd advise against the 17/18 combo. The proportions don't look right on an Fbod. IMO you'll be much happier with all the same size.

I have seen it many times, I love the way it looks.

Plus I have new 17" tires I wanna use up front.

I think they look really good on a red car. I just showed them to my girlfriend and told her that's what she needs to get me for Christmas. My tires are in need of replacing anyways.

Yeah I just sold them like a month ago, ah well. Shipping for you won't be much since they're outta sarasota.

Heres some better pics...



This was my first plan with the car (courtesy of Brian200x's car), now I have a slightly altered one...
