Default Poll: Need Opinion on Z06 items

Hey ls1tech,

I have a 2002 Bright Rally Red Camaro SS. I really would like to put some nicer rims on it, and am torn between the two following rims

black c5 z06 rims - 400 for the set

or

chrome c6 z06 rims - 620 for the set

I really think this is a good bargain for both in reality, I just want to get some feeback. I know people are saying that the c5 z06 wheels are a bit played out, but I still think they look better than my stocker SS rims.

I also like the black c6 z06 wheels but I cant find them for sale anywhere... ill attach a picture of what im talking about...

thanks!!

I personally dont like the black wheels on red. With a red car the best looking wheel is a chrome C6 wheel. Or the chrome Z06

I think the black C5's look horrible, they're one of the worst wheels I see on these cars.

The rivets look cheap, and there's something about them that makes them look small. Maybe it's the rivets or the lip, but whatever it is, they look like 16's to me at first glance.

Go chrome or polished on a red car, I really think the chrome C6's would look nice.
