chrome looks good on any car. You can't see black so well.

Re: Rims to get.. LETs vote!

you can't see black too well... that's not what they tell me 0_0. granted it doesnt show up well in pics but in person you can see them really well. a good black powdercoat is pretty shiny, or at least mine is. even i have to agree, though, its hard to beat chrome. for some reason i just like the black/chrome on the black topped cars esp red or white with black top

Re: Rims to get.. LETs vote!

I figured it was just a painted black roof, i forget that they even make verts in Fbodies, no one has one in this area.

Re: Rims to get.. LETs vote!

Ive got the same setup as you, (black top, mirrors, tail panel) only the car is white and I went with the Black Wheels. Looks good in my opinion.

I also did rolled edge slash cut exhaust tips powdercoated a gloss black.

Re: Rims to get.. LETs vote!

I'm probably in the minority but on a factory silver car... for some reason... the silver painted wheels look "just right" to me. Don't know why, but that's my thought everytime I see that setup.

Said the same thing the other day when I saw a new silver C6 w/silver wheels. Just looked "right".

Re: Rims to get.. LETs vote!

Hey, do they make silver c6 wheels? All I've ever seen were the chrome. I have a silver Z with black top and mirrors etc. and would love to have a set of those c6 wheels but powder coated silver.

Re: Rims to get.. LETs vote!

Don't get ZR1s, IMO they're ordinary and very commonplace. They actually LOOK like stock wheels...and while, say a Z06 wheel is also a stock wheel, it looks great on a Camaro.

Z06s...SS 10-spoke (my favorites because I have them )...C5...tons of choices.
