Actually its the Blue Oyster. You would think you would know that considering I saw you center stage a couple nights doing your thang. BTW the pink thong clashes with those pumps you wear. Just sayin. hahaha

Thanks man and thanks everyone, even though this thread kinda ended up off topic like most of them do :p but it's okay. I was thinking chrome but I think these will look clean, especially once I get the SS hood and paint the manta the same color as the wheels

MTX 06-25-2010 02:00 AM

my buddys got a chrome set on his wifes 400rwhp h&c lt1. they look gooood

Formula413 06-25-2010 02:02 AM

Actually your wheel/car color combo is somewhat similar to mine, which I have come to really like. And it's funny you mention the stripe, I had thought of maybe doing a stripe the same color as my wheels, I bet it will look badass.

Oh shut up!!!!!!!

Yeah dude I love that color combo I think it looks sweet. Chrome is nice, but it's a pain to keep clean and I think my car will look stealthy with the Gunmetal Grey wheels. I'm definitely doing that with the hood, I think it'll look nasty.

*LS1* Queen 06-25-2010 04:03 AM

i def like the gunmetal better on ur type of color and they are easier to maintain than chrome

DemonWithin99 06-25-2010 08:39 AM

been fighting myself with gunmetal vs. chrome.. painful thought process.. lol

yeah I have chrome 20's on my truck and they are definitely a pain even though they look nice.

VinnyDz28 06-25-2010 05:13 PM

Tested out one of the wheels today. I think it looks good. It fits, but it's almost too wide and almost hits the wheels well. Here's the best pic I took:

Okay good. That means I just gotta get some tires and I'll be good to put them on! I'm pumped, those wheels will completely change the look of the car for the better.

BTW they're 17x9 in the front and 18x10.5 in the back

thanks! they're real

ILuvPizzaTimes10 06-25-2010 08:01 PM

Looks SICK!!!!! will off set the car Very nice. and you have a decent set of wheels left over to throw some Real tires on there and Race it!!!

P.S. if there Off of a Z06 you might have to roll the rear quarters. the back space is SLIGHTLY different then runnin an F-Body Z06 Replica.
