I got new wheels!!

Who likes?!

They are a little dusty, and the digital camera doesn't do a good job at showing how shiny they are

No. They came powdercoated black and clear

They should be on the car in a week or so, and my other appearance mods will be done by that time too

ive been seeing alot of these around, i guess some company decided to add a lip to the C5 rims; they look a bit like the CCW SP500s

Mount those up. I'm really leaning towards getting a set of those for my camaro. I'm kind of torn between those and the newer style c5 z06 they carry with the polished lip.

Let us know if there are any problems with the quality or if they don't balance well.

They are staggered 18x10.5" rear and 17x9.5" front

Yes, I found them on eBay, for less than $500. I too, thought they looked alot like the CCW SP500s, but for thousands less.

They are a custom design for O.E. Wheels, manufactured by an engineering firm called Morxchn.

I hope to have pics of the wheels mounted and all new additions by the first of the month. We'll see...

I think these wheels will scream, "I mean business"
