Yeah, it looked like the same finish that was on the C5 Z06 wheels. Looks ok on the right color car, but for me . Polished .

Re: Competition gray wheels.....

my dad's Victory Red C6 has the Comp Grey wheels. He would've rather had the polished wheels, but he didn't want to wait and that was the only Victory Red C6 in East Texas, so he got it then.

Anyway, I'm gonna try to find a set of either polished or chrome wheels for him to get so I can get his rims for my 96 impala SS

I havent seen one in person , but man , I bet that would be HOT on a Black , Lemans blue or Sunset Orange car !! Chevys site says you can get the same finish on the 10 spoke Z06 wheel too . SOM Z06 with the comp grey wheels would be DROOOOOOOL!!!!!!!

Saw a couple of cars with them on during the plant tour in Bowling Green. Definitely the wheels I would order.

The grey wheels look bad, IMO...... makes the wheels look like they are covered in brake dust.

Re: Competition gray wheels.....

I agree with poSSum...I saw them on the tour as well. I love 'em One set was on a red vert, which looked stupid...but they had a set of them on the floor near a yellow car going down the line. I pictured the two of them together...yummy

Speaking of the plant tour, saw a pair of rear Z06 wheels/tires sitting on a cart.

I wish I would have snapped a couple pics of the wheels and tires at NAIAS. You're right, they look like steamrollers on the back of the car.
