Wow. The blacked out look goes really well with that red. Are your windows really tinted that dark or does it just look like that in the picture?

Tint goes well with the blackouts. Wow is that dark, I like it.

Looks like a photoshop to me. Look at the calipers.

In fact that IS a photoshop. There are a few dead giveaways. In the center of the wheel there is something that resembles hands on a clock. If you use those as references, there are reflections and scuffs that appear on both wheels in the exact same spot. Those tints just don't look real.

i honestly hope he wasnt trying to fool people into beilive that was a real pic of his car.

But based on the non photoshoped part...i like the color

and i do think you should actually buy the C6 rims without the rivets and go ahead and tint ur windows black.

Well if that's how you want your car to look, I say it's a great choice, but lose the rivets on the wheels, I've always hated those. All-black or all-chrome C6's are one of my favorite wheels for thirdgens though.

I definitely prefer the chrome IROCs over the black C6s. But I still think you should go with the tint.

No need to lie about what you don't have.. i'd like to have an LS6 in my ride, but im not about to PS one in and claim its the hotness. It would look nice with those tires, but that level of tint just wouldn't look right.
