matte black only comes in (stainless lip w/rivets) for 160 more.

Who is the company that is selling these (PM me if you need to)?

The black with lip, no rivets, is awesome looking. Wish someone with a green fbody would put up a picture, so I could see what it looks like. Either that or I'm going to powder coat my z06's black.

Wow... these wheels have been out for over a month now and there's still not a single picture of a car with the black 17/18 setup on it??

I heard something about the Chrome job on them being ****. That could be one reason more people haven't got them. I personally have been waiting to let some others get them, fit them & post a good review.

I have a hard time dropping $800 on a new product that other f-body owners haven't tried out. A month of them being released really isn't very long.

Ah, from what I can tell the company makes a shitload of different wheels, I imagine the quality of the chrome would be similar to their other stuff.

I'm strongly considering the black Y2k's for my black FRC, but my main concern is that the lip takes away too much from the diameter of the center section and makes the wheel look small (like on Z06 motorsports), and it's hard to know one way or the other without seeing them mounted up on a car.

Me too. I'd like to replace my 18x9.5/18x10.5 Zo6's with these.

I even called the company to see if they planned to make them in a 9.5....he said no. I told him: "Thats too bad cause I would have bought them. I'm not willing to step down to 17s in the front so I guess I'll look elsewhere for a new set of wheels."

You'd think since they've had so many asking for the 18x9.5s that they would at least consider making them

I've been thinking about 18s all around to replace my black/polished lip ZR1s.... but I'll probably wait until a better vendor/seller comes up with them. I want deep dish lips so bad.... but I am a broke college student and that's life
