We got new wheels and tires
 
Yesterday we pick up some new zo6 gray's rims and runflats for our C-5 from a new forum member name Finish Line-Shawn,Super guy.:dancer01:

Let's all give him a warm welcome here:welcome::wavey::welcome:

The tires are like brand new and the rims are super,I'm planning on painting them black as soon as I get the tire pressure senser out of the old rims.They will look awesome.:thumbsup:Hope you all enjoy.

Everyone around here wanted 360$ or higher for one runflat tire and these rims I got cost between 900$-1000$ for a set,so on averege all together all 4 tires and rims would cost around 2200$ -2400$ and that's not mounted and balanced.:eek:We paid only 500$,GREAT DEAL:crazy03:Thay are already balanced and mounted.

Very nice, but I have to say this, Don't use Hi-Gloss paint and make them too shinny :hehehe:

Nice wheels. I really like black wheels. My Z06 has chrome wheels which I really don't care for. I like polished aluminum or black much better. I probably end up getting some different 3 piece wheels for it. Most likey black.

Say what you will about the wheels, but I think the Lug Nuts make the whole thing!
