Default Which Do You Like Better?

Alright looking into getting wheels (black) and dont know which to get. I am deciding between the all black c6 zo6 wheels, all black c5 zo6 wheels, or all gloss black 35th anniversary wheels. Tell me which would look best on my car. Oh and if i decide on getting the c6's should i go with 17's all around or 17/18? Oh and FYI Im gonna be blacking out my car that is why I am going with all black wheels, already did the whistler mod a few days ago, i have smoked out taillights and im gonna be putting on 5% all around.




wheels

Why want something different if being different means looking like poo poo? You could also remove the V-8 and put a V-6 in its place.....that's different. Just bustin your *****. I don't like any of the wheel choices either btw.

I say stick to the one's you have, they look good, but if you still want to go black, get the C6 Z06 gloss black!

I actually like the ones you have, but of the choices, I like the C6 Z's or the black 10-spokes. I see a black SS with black 10 spokes around here, it looks pretty mean.

Please don't ruin your car by going with the C5 Z's, those wheels are hideous and look like crap on 99% of F-Bodies. Plus, if you don't want a wheel that EVERYONE has, that pretty much rules that wheel out anyway.

What about the regular C6 with the black spokes and polished lip? Those look nice.

i feel these wheels work well with the camaros. 17/18 with eibach 1.5 inch drop. 275/35 front 295/40 rear.


i am switching to black ss ten spokes in the winter. painted them flat black and don't really care if i eff them up. the ws6 looks nasty though....making me think. deff do chrome lug nuts too with black valves. looks the best IMO.
