Don't look good IMO. Go with some ROH Snypers or Z's.

Did a search, and it turns up nothing.
I remember a red Iroc with SS Badges, I LOVED the way they looked on there.

Re: 3rd gens with Z06 wheels
on nethirdgen.org there is somebody with a silver Z28 w/Z06's. I think they are one of the best looking rims on a thirden Z. I think his name is Jack Daniels....but not absolutely sure if it was his car.

Re: 3rd gens with Z06 wheels
I snagged from somewhere on the net a few months back, the Z06 rims are only on the rear.

lol... come on now it isn't that bad is it?
thanks for the kind words though guys and the support. yes i had o.e. concept z06 18x9.5 front and 18x10.5 rear. the reason they don't look quite right on the car is for two reasons.
A. the offset of the rims were extremely high causing the overall design and face of the rim to look large. in some pics the rims almost look larger then 18's because of this. the fronts were a +65 offset which was extreme. there rears weren't bad with a +58 offset but still more then some of the knockoff companies out there like AFS, AAA, PWO, etc.
b. the use of adapters and the length they were at. i didn't want to modify any parts of the car so i had to run a very large adapter. the front was 2 1/4" which was rather extreme.
if you decide to go with the z06 rims try to get something with a smaller offset then what i had as the design of the rim will look better which changes the overall look of the car dramatically. after all the hassles with fitment i ended up having a custom set of boze wheels made. can't say i didn't like my z06 wheels but they just weren't for me. unfortunately thirdgen is down right now however there are alot of pictures with z06 wheels on thirdgens from 17-18" sizes. if you have trouble you can always email me and i'd be happy to help in anyway i can.
good luck.
site is back up, did you one better to get you started.
