Default Z16

Hi guys....
Just bought my 2nd Z16 and contemplating putting black C6 wheels on her with the red lips on the perimeter of that wheel. But before I do this, if I do it..... I was needing to know if any Z16 owners have one dressed up like that? Am curious just to see if I would like the looks well enough Before buying the wheels...

Thanks!
Zeeman

Not a fan of all back wheel, nor a stripe of any Color.
But it's your car.

Black wheels? Not my thing on a Z16...

I put TSWs with a polished spoke/matte barrel finish that complements the gray stripes. The red lip might be neat, but again...not a fan of the black wheels with the blue/red/gray.

congrats on your new Z! I would love to see you put some CCW SP500's on there! That would look amazing! The whole black wheel thing hasn't moved me......but whatever works for you.

Congrats on the purchase Zeeman! Althought not a C6 you can get a pretty good idea of how much a wheel with a dark center face & red outer lip pops. The two heavyweights in the aftermarket wheel industry, both HRE & Adv.1, can accommodate you with this option on any of their 3-piece wheel offerings. We happen to be the largest dealer in the world for both so I'd love to be able to provide you with some options and absolute take your Z16 to the next level.
