Hey anyone think 17in gun metal zr1's would look good on a red camaro? I want to change the stock 10 spokes as soon as the tires go bad. Also! if anyone happens to have a picture of this combo maybe that could help me decide and show my girl friend it'll look cool. lol

Thanks

Thanks for the compliment!!!

When i first got them, I was a little concerned that they wouldnt be dark enough. I wanted as close to black as possible w/o being black ya know? But once I put them on... I FELL IN LOVE!!! Definitely one of the best mods I ever did... :)

All i can say is do it. I got a set for my Firebird, and they look great with the red.

I think the Gunmetal rims look good on Black, SOM, Blue (any shade) and thats about it. Personally, I think red would look best with either silver, or chrome. As your thread asks for, it was just my opinion.

ya! I am thinking of doing polished wheels now. Do chrome wheels weigh more than polished wheels?

I've got a red Z28 w/ gunmetal grey ZR1s... Do it! I was this close to getting black ones. I'm glad I didn't. I think the gunmetal greys look tasteful on red cars, not over done, ya know?:cool:

I'm in the same boat. I haven't decided on which ones I want either. There is a company in Sarasota that has both. I think both look good.

I was thinking about rims for my 95 Black Formula, the gunmetal ZR1's look great. Few questions. What size rims? Tire size? Price for rims? Place they could be purchased?
thanks.

do a search on ebay... I cant remember the name of the company I got mine from. But they were really good with shipping and sent me new center caps when i found out they were all busted from the stupid morons at ups...

I got them mounted on hankook tires (yea, I know, they suck) for less than 1000. 9.5 all the way around. But you can get 11" wide for the rear if you want.

Here's my gunmetal ZR1's on my T/A. the rears are 17x11's w/ 315's :cool: I still cant get over how the car's look changed with them - much more agressive :D

To 'help' the look, Im using cast lugnuts and popped in my WS6 centercaps.

Hey Heatseeker, what offset are your rear wheels? Car looks great!

Thank you for the compliment! The polished outer lip doesnt show well in the pics, but in person its a very nice accent to he gunmetal color.

The rear wheels are 17 x 11 with 50mm offset and the front wheels 17 x 9.5 with 56mm offset.
