Talking black z06 wheels

these came in last friday, haven't had time to take pics until today.. pollen infestation has taken over my car so I gave it a quick bath and it was coated before I could wax it, but nonetheless

here are the black z06 wheels (WITHOUT RIVETS) I got from tomzwheels.




these are 17x9.5 wheels, bfg geforce t/a kdw 275/40/17 tires

I'm thinking about getting those in 18"x9.5", how much did you pay?

From TomZWheels.com ---> $520 + Shipping

Although they never responded when I e-mailed them, many folks tell me they are easy to deal with....

I got mine from OE Wheels EBay Store ---> $525 including shipping

Although I have yet to receive them, so I can't comment, but there seems to be some issues with another member not getting his 17 x 11 ZR1 rims due to back-order.... While others seem to have no issues at all....
OE Wheels Thread Here

I'll comment more on fit and finish once I have them in my hands (Hopefully this week)

Edit: I linked you to 18s, but both Tomz Wheels & OE Wheels have 17 x 9.5s as well

Thanks alot, I saw the ones on e-bay also and was wondering if they are good quality and what not. They look like a great deal, let me know what you think. Didn't mean to hijack this thread- your wheels look great by the way.

Awesome prices. Hey will this work for my car? 1994 camaro base. https://host279.ipowerweb.com/~tomzw...cf302172c70069

Just want to make sure. I'm sure they will since it's z06 replica.


oooh and I have one more question. Should I do the Hankook Ventus HRII H405 245-45-17 or the BFGoodrich g-Force Sport 245/45/17?

Looks good, but too skinny in the back.

Wheels Showed Up Today

But UPS decided the best delivery method was air shipment from the back of the truck Only 1 Box was intact, the others were all in some way crushed or torn

2 Wheels have small scuffs out front, and 1 has both front and rear damage

Luckily I went for the insurance, but not sure how this one will play out

Wheels apppear to be nice quality minus UPS's Work

I'll call OE Wheels in the AM to report the damage, and go from there

UPDATE: they were willing to take 1 back but based upon the damage descriptions felt like all four should balance fine.

So I will be mounting and balancing them and if they are off working through replacement at that point.

Hopefully next week they'll be on the car
