Sorry about font. It's stuck. I was looking at black chrome wheels I seen some nice corvette grand sport and I think the z06. Beautiful wheels. Trying to go either 17x8 or 18x8.5 fronts and 19x10 rear. Has anyone used or know a site that has black chrome? Or can I get some iroc's dipped or something?

 

You can get just about any wheels chromed (or black chromed) - just expect to cost a bit of $ to have it done.

Your stagger selection is odd - what sizes are available?

 

reg corvette stagger that I have found is
19x10rear and 18x8.5 front on most
but I also found 20x10 rear 19x10 front
the grand sport wheels I really want are 19x12rear 18x9.5front
I thought about just doing the 18x9.5 fronts all four corners as long as the backspacing works with the rear.

1st pic usually come in 19x10 rear
the 2nd is the one I really want but the rears come in 19x12 and I don't want to tub. so that's my prob.

 

I'm not sure about the BS, but it is an easy fix to get the proper wheel adapters to make them fit.

Yes, go with an 18" x 9.5" all around with a 275-35-18 (or 275-40-18) tire on all 4 corners.

 

I agree that 18x9.5 would be an excellent size all the way around. And as reproductions, either of those wheels you posted should be available in that size. But with 18" wheels, if you haven't already upgraded to big brakes, then you might consider doing so. The last three pics, below, compare a stock 10.5" rotor to a 12" and 13.4" rotor behind an 18" wheel.

Another tire size to consider for 18x9.5 wheels is 255/40-ZR18; it's a 26" tire, and 3rdgens were designed for 26" tires. The factory-original 215/65-15 was 26", the optional upgrade 235/60-15 was 26", and the IROC was supposed to have the 26" 255/50-16, but GM used that on the C4 Corvette and went with the negligibly-shorter(25.7"), narrower 245 on the IROC.

The 255/40-ZR18 has an aggressive, modern fit on 18x9.5 wheels, and there are plenty of tires/brands available in that size. Here's my 18x9.5 Enkei TX5 wheel, in Black Chrome, with a 255/40-ZR18 tire:





Factory-size 10.5" rear rotor:


4thgen LS1 12" rear rotor:


C6 Z51 13.4" front rotor:

 

Those look really nice, any pics of them on the car?
Do they come in black chrome, or did you have that done?

 

Sorry about so long with no reply. Those are hot. And that's allot of meat. Sounds like the way to go

 

The 20 spoke black chrome would look great on the car. I would love to see a photo shop of them on a GTA
