Look strangly familier

paarman97maro 07-31-2006 01:10 PM

more chevy stuff? They look okay, but I think you could find better wheels.

ps, IM really starting to hate paint.

rice burner 07-31-2006 01:11 PM

that looks good ..now add some black turn signals

FamousZ 07-31-2006 01:14 PM

I think you should find some better looking rims..

blue89vert 07-31-2006 01:28 PM

they are nice

69z-28 07-31-2006 01:50 PM

Paar, ive always had the wheels, not like im adding more stuff, just changing what ive had. and BTW paint is all i have to work with so dont hate.

Derek, you should find me wheels cheaper than what i bought these for and ill consider it. wait, thats not gonna happen.

so comments about the wheel color? not different wheels or go back to Pontiac of some dumb crap like that.

BTW Julian, im ordering some VHT niteshade very soon...

So have you ever thought about getting different black rims?

2000v6cam 07-31-2006 02:00 PM

i think they look pretty good

camaro94 07-31-2006 02:10 PM

they look nice for what they are. Just not fond of the wheel style in general.

paarman97maro 07-31-2006 02:33 PM

I just dont think they flow well with that body style at all. Plus I see them a lot now... Im just thinking a different design would look better on your car.

97z2801ss 07-31-2006 05:29 PM

itll look cool man

camaro_chic17 07-31-2006 08:29 PM

I like them darker like that

Mikerock 07-31-2006 09:11 PM

it would look better if they were c5's

Mike Jones 07-31-2006 09:23 PM

I think he's asking more of what you about what he's doing to the wheels than the wheels themselves. He said he can't afford to buy new ones and since he's already had these he's going to keep them.

NoRiceInside 07-31-2006 09:39 PM

yeah you guys are being so negative. us TA guys are broke. hes looking for a cheap way to make his wheels stand out.

you know i dont like black wheels, but i say do it. it looks good with your theme.

69z-28 07-31-2006 10:11 PM

thank you Chad thats exactly right. thanks for all the comments/oppinions, ive already made my final decision.

paarman97maro 07-31-2006 10:15 PM

I was just suggesting... why dont you sell those wheels, and get different ones? I thought your wheels stuck out better before as chrome than your black zr1s.

Not a problem, I know what it's like when you do something like that and no one listens.

Mikerock 08-01-2006 01:06 AM

well im not here to kiss your ***, i think it would look better with c5's.

69z-28 08-01-2006 06:06 AM

thanks for the oppinion mike, i think C5's might look cooler too, personally i would like to put black Z06's on it, but i cant get much for these, at least not enough to buy new Z06's and i dont wanna even try to do it. im happy with them for the time being especially since i was able to buy them back off the Z for so little.

See now it makes a little more sense to me, this way you can run your wider tires in the back..now it all comes together.

Originally I thought you went out and bought ZR1's for the T/A, which at the time I kept my mouth shut. And yes, I do have WS6 wheels on my car, but only because I was sick of seeing everyone do an SS hood and ZR1 wheels, so while me saying "Keep it Pontiac" is putting my foot in my mouth, I personally think WS6 look better on a Z than ZR1 on a T/A- make sense? Guess I should have explained a little more on my last comment I made.

So back to your original question-

To put it bluntly, it seems as though you are trying to hard to add color to your car. I would honestly stick with your original idea of the tint, indicators and such. I do like the idea and look of black rims, but I don't think the ZR1's flow with your car, but maybe thats because I'm used to seeing them on Chevy's not Pontiacs.

I would leave them the way they are, I think in the long run you will be better off. I bet in a year once you save some quarters you could get more for them chrome than you could with them black.

69z-28 08-01-2006 09:05 PM

i understand there are lots of other choices that would look way better, but like i said, money and the oppurtunity came and i said for sure i want them back cause IMO i like them better than stock and they arent seen as much. down the road i will prolly get black Z06 wheels or some really neat multispoke wheels(i agree the ZR1s dont go as well on a T/A as they do on a camaro, but like i said before, theyre different a were a great deal) if i am satisfied with the performance and everything else down the road and i have some denaro, i will look into something else, until then im liking these.

again thanks for all comments and oppinions.

Mikerock 08-01-2006 11:27 PM

dude the black z06's with the chrome polished rivits would look ******* sex.

69z-28 08-02-2006 09:51 AM

yes, black with chrome lip z06s are what id like.

Runn_WS7 08-13-2006 02:43 PM

They look perfect.
