A while ago I asked for some help with Z06 wheels for my '92 coupe: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=643766

Once I knew what I wanted, I ordered the wheels last week through a local race shop and had them installed yesterday. I kept the stock size: 17"x9.5" on all four wheels. I had Sumitomo HTRZ tires on there and decided to give the HTRZ-II tires a try.

The car's a bit dirty in the pictures, I'll wash it after Isabel blows through...

Here's the car with the new wheels:


Here's a closeup of the front wheel:


Here's a closeup of the rear wheel:


Here's a view of the Sumitomo HTRZ-II's tread:


There are some minor issues. There's no corvette logo on the wheel center caps. I'll stop by the local dealer and see if they have them and how much they are. Also, you can now see more of the rotors, including the rust near the center. And the rotors look way too small; so I'm going to have to either get C5 or some aftermarket brakes.

I left my old sawblades with them. They're going to sell them for me. They are a Magnaflow dealer so I'll use the proceeds to offset the cost of putting Magnaflow mufflers on the car. :cool:

Me too. I think the painted wheels look outstanding, especially in that dark stock-style color. I think AFS only offers them in silver. :U

They look awesome!! I just got a set of chrome Z06 rims with Toyo's 275/35/18's mounted on them. I am putting them on this weekend. I got them through AFS. I can't wait! Especially after seeing how good they look on your Vette!!!

i like that.they look like they belong on there.
i dont agree about the rotors tho,bigger is always better,but those look-well-normal size wise to me.
the slotted affect or drilled is always neat tho in a high tech kinda way.
the center caps will take your eye away from the rotor issue a bit too.
i dunno,pretty darn nice from my house! :cheers:

:cool: I love te look of Z06 wheels on a C4.

Maybe give some thought to painting your brake calipers red to match your car. :thumbs: :cheers:
