its not to bad were you thinking of a diffrent color by chance, or are you set on black

 

Naw stick with silver or chrome..

 

get some 17in powdercoated black rims and itll look very sweet

 

Are you going to paint or powder coat them. I know a good shop in so cal if your interested.

 

They will be powdercoated, and i can't decide between all black or black w/ polished lip. and i want to stick w/ the 16's, my GTA has 17's. and the 16's just look better on my camaro IMO. thanks for the opinions

When I powdered coated my rims, I had them coat it all the way down so there was no edge. I changed my mind a few times to have the polished lip, but later I figured that I could pinstripe something there as an option. So, I left the wheels solid. It turns out it looks better. You can powder coat them black all the way, then pinstripe a yellow line on the edge. Or whatever color you want.

 

IMO, I think black wheels w/ a polished outer lip is recently becoming more popular. I think black wheels against the purple paint would look really good. I have black Z06 wheels on my white '94Z and I get compliments wherever I go. Definitely go with the black.

 

Black rims look good, but I don't like the polished lip. Have you considered the black pearl color?

 

are they the motorsport z06 wheels? if not which ones are they and where'd ya get em??!?!

you can get them powdercoated w/o the polished lip

 

I got lucky. I found mine on ebay back in February. I paid $1,120 including locking lugs and shipping from a guy by the name of Russ. You should check his site out; it's called voodooperformance.com. My wheels are not oems, they're reproductions.

 

Now that's what I'm talkin bout!

sweet...

 

here are pics of my car with black zr1s with a polished lip.
