Those are really hot wheels, and you can't beat a hardtop 91Z as far as looks go, but for some reason, these two don't belong together. Just my opinion.

That looks great man.... I'd be interested to know the specs on the wheels... backspacing etc.



Its a night and day difference between those and the Z06 wheels.... makes the Z06 wheels look like ***.

I think the rims look a little too goofy on the car, I dont know why but maybe its the size or the bright chrome. Other than that the car looks great and I dont see any reason why you need to change the side markers, they look fine to me. How do you like your painted light pockets?

LOL... wow, aren't we testy? No need to get upset just because one person doesn't like the combo you have. I don't care what you do with the wheels or your car, I'm just giving my opinion.

Man I dont understand why you have to act like that. I refer to wheels with that finish as chrome usually, its a habit and big whoop. I was just stating that I like a duller finish on wheels usually which is just an opinion, Im sure he doesnt even care. Also, do you think that I dont know the light pockets come painted, really? I was talking about painted black, highlighted, offset, painted different that than the main body color so I dont undestand why you have to act like that.

I'm pretty sure he was just having fun and not trying to be personal...

Thanks you all! I'm really happy with the way they turned out. That was just what I was looking for.


Eventually, I might play around with some springs and see how they look. I'm thinking the pro kit it will only drop it 1.75" front and rear I think that would be fine. But really I do not think I'm touching it except for some Koni's and Spohn goodies.
I will never have to re think about wheel selection again. It's on to other things here and there~

I think if you got the pro kit it might raise it some your stockers were pretty saggy.
