Well since nobody has pics of my color car ill ask you guys for some suggestions. What rims would you put on a dark green grey metallic colored z28 ill post up my fquick page so you can see the color for yourself, basically in the sun the car looks greenish grey and in the night it looks gunmetal its a pretty rare color from what i have read. Thanks for your help guys.

IMO, darker color cars look better with some Shiny wheels, if not chrome, at least polished. The exception is a Black car with black-centered wheels with polished "lips".

Just some suggestions that I think would look good. Other will probably chime in with better options!

For the LT1 body style, I like the TTII:



But it has been done a LOT, so... Maybe something a little less common...

American Racing GT5:



O.Z. Raffaello III:



These aren't too shiny, but would still look very good on your car, I think.

The OZs are really nice but $$$$$$
The AR GT5's look really nice but also $$$$$
I like the OZ's the best. IMO
If you go to the tire rack website you can view different wheels on your car.

Damn... I always thought AR's were pretty cheap, but the GT5's are pretty high.

$2300 a set for 18"... OUCH!
