Default Do you think these look good?

I'm about to buy this car, and these are the wheels it comes with. I think they look decent, but I'm trying to decide between these or some chrome wheels. What do you think?

Unless you don't like black rims, they look great to me as well. It's a great looking car.

You should get what you want. I love black cars but I don't care for the black rims on this one. I would go chrome. 2 cents.

I can't read the centercap, but that looks like a quality set of wheels!

That's why I qualified my remark related to the wheels being black. Black wheels arent my thing, but are very popular amount vette owners.

I personally like chrome, but I am a little older and chrome is my thing (I would chrome the entire car if I could).

Are those zforce wheels on it now? They make some good wheels, that are reasonbly priced.

Good luck with whatever you choose...

I wouldn't own anything but a black car, but the current trend of "all black" wheels doesn't do it for me. I think the set-up that CCW had, with the black centers and polished rims, looks great. I don't know if they have C-6 fittments with those wheels, though....

IMO - They look great and much better than chrome. You can always add a red pinstripe for contrast.

I don't care for all black rims
At all even tho they are def popular. I agree that a red pinstripe would look good tho.

Those are our Zforce Wheels, built by the founder of HRE.

Best bang for your buck on the market!

Gorgeous car!

They look alright, but if you don't want black wheels I can always help you out with a new set.



I would strongly recommend the following ADV's for any Corvette, they come in matte black, brushed aluminum, matte gunmetal, basically any color you can think of. You guys can send me over a PM or email me ( Gor@AcutePerformance.com ) for any information on any of these wheels.
