  • Should i get black Z06's?

    i've been wanting black wheels for the longest time, but was worried how they would look on a red car. i've seen a few pics of black wheels on red f-bodies and i think they look real good. this is how my car looks now:

    this is what i'm looking to get:

    if i do get the wheels, i'm going to ditch the light silver ram air decals and rear pontiac inserts and get black ones. i'm not sure what i'll do about the clear corners, either leave them in or put the stock ones back in. i'm not a huge fan of the rivets, but i don't know sells them w/o and at a low price. let me know what you guys think.

    I really think you should keep what you have.

      Black wheels look tight on black cars, but that's about it... And I personally would only get a set if they had a polished outer edge to make them stand out and not look like ricer wheels without the hubcaps!

                Since your car is badass looking already I'd hate to see you buy the rims and have it look shi*ty. I dunno maybe you can find someone with those rims that lives close so you can see what it looks like before fork over all that cash for other rims. Then you could always buy em and give em to me if you don't like em :D

                  I think chrome would look better. I saw a red TA with some 18" chrome Z06s the other day and it looked perfect.

                      I think red trucks look good with black wheels, but I'm not sure if I personally would do it to my car if I were you. Then again I'm not you :D

                          after seeing ^that^ i would say either
                          1) keep it how you have it. your car is awesome.
                          or
                          2)get the black wheels, blackout everything (turn signals, side markers, taillights), and get black decals (hood, bird on the front bumper, inlays on rear, side "firebird" and maybe black bird decals on the pillars)
