I wonder if I'm the first with a set of black ones

Sorry, but it's going to be a little while before I can get them mounted. I'll post pics asap

I tried calling for an 18 all around set as well. But they dont make them. I'm not a fan of the 17/18 set up at all. Besides that, the look like a good set of wheels at a killer price.

I haven't gotten a chance to weigh them yet, but they don't feel much heavier than my Y2Ks. On the box for the rear (18") wheel, 20 lugs, one centercap, and all packaging, it says the weight is 28 pounds

B/c some people are dumb.

Vette wheels look just fine on f-bodies. If there was a better variety of wheels out there that actually fit properly without spacers, hub rings or patterns just close enough to make it work, maybe more poeple would get away from the vette wheels.

Fact is for their price & improved look over stock you can't hardly beat them. Not everyone wants to drop $2000 on wheels alone that are polished & a bitch to keep clean on a daily driver.
