Anyone have black c6 wheels on their 3rdgen?
I'm thinking about a set of black w/polished lip C6 motorsport wheels for my black 91 Z (19x10.5 and 18x8).
Anyone have these rims?

I can pick up 3 of the 6 spoked c6 wheels, black w/ chrome lip for around 400 bucks with tires, all are 18x8s though, Ive been debating getting them for my Iroc but cant come up with the ***** to get'em as I dont know how'll they will look.

C6 wheels on our cars look awesome...and i can only imagine that the black spoke versions will be better

The new C6 Z06 wheels look decent. However, I was refering to the black center w/polished lip regular c6 motorsport wheels with polished rivets.
I think the bigger 19's in the back and 18's in the front would look killer!!

Yep, I think I want those!!
They come in 18x8.5 for the front and 19x10 for the back. I'd probably go with 255/40/18 for the front and 305/35/19 for the back.

C6 rear wheels need atleast a 3/4" adapter for them to fit a C5. I've seen the C6 wheels with the C5 offset but they are 18x9, haven't seen 19x10's yet

its the height that kinda worries me. depends on what tire you get. 19inch 295/30 series tires for 10inch rim are 26 inches tall compared to 17x11's 25.7 inches tall. 285/35/19's (OEM C6) are near 27 inches tall. those 19x10's have +79mm offset so its probly gonna need a very large spacer. In fact, Skulte says use a 2.25 inch spacer. thats pretty big hunk of spacer back there
the taller tires will have to worry about rubbing the side of the inner well, or clipping the fender lip on full suspension travel which isnt much travel.
