Have seen lots of polished/chrome, but never many just plain silver (which i like). Black ones are ok, but not a huge fan. Trying to get some ideas, if you all got pics that'd be great too... i tried searching but as soon as I got specific the system would give me either a single thread or tell me it had nothing Thanks for helping me pass the time at work

there's a reason you see a lot of polished/chrome

 

w3rd

 

chrome is the only way to brighten up the black look of the car.

you won't be disapointed.

 

I've seen some with polished rim and red insert. Not bad!

 

Chrome or black with a chrome outter lip

 

Thanks for the input guys!

Personally, I am not a crome fan either, and also like the silver over them. Overall though, I think some Gunmetal Grey ZR-1's would look the best on a black Z.

 

Never knew they made gunmetal... pics of said wheels?

EDIT: nevermind found 'em on ebay, and they don't look too bad... are they somewhat new? I like 'em more than the black. Hmmm great another wrench in the decision making process hahaha

 

How about a red candy paint on top of chrome? It'd look like red chrome.

 

This might help give you an idea for silver on black...

They're SS wheels but same basic appearance from the side

 

I love chrome on an all-black car.......actually, chrome on any dark-colored car is awesome. If I had the money I'd get chrome wheels for mine.

 

I agree... chrome is pretty darn sharp. I've had all three combos (chrome, silver, black) on a black 4th gen Z. I'd give you a first hand opinion of which I like better but I don't know myself! DOH! In all cases I liked the look and don't actually have a preference. Weird

 

I love the polished look. Chrome is a little too flashy and its hard to see the spokes on a black wheel. Defiantly get the 11s for the rear which ever finish you choose.

 

11s in the rear aren't even a question =) Thanks for the input, right now I'd like either polished or plain silver, Brent that SS is one of the ones that has me liking silver, heh.
