Default C3 with Z28 wheels. Anyone have pics?

I did a quick search but nothing turned up. I've always liked the 1970 - 1978 Z28 5 spoke wheels with the rings and was wondering what a C3 would look like with them. Or any other 70 - 81 Z28 wheels.

Anyone? Thanks

I would like to see these on a corvette, but you would need to run spacers for the correct backspacing. I was thinking of them for my car, but I'm think I'm going to just go with Coys

Here is some on my Camaro and I think they look better than anything else. Not sure if they would look that good on my 75 Corvette.

I checked the year one website, and they are availible in 5" or 4.25" backspacing. I think the 4.25 would work without spacers.

I think you're right.
Only problem I have with them now is they make the tire look like it has a white wall on them.

I'd still like to see them on a C3. maybe someone can do a photoshop

I'm interested in seeing the N90 Camaro wheels on a Corvette also
