I have put less than 500 miles on these wheels and tires since I had them powder coated. They have Toyo Proxes T1
265/40 ZR17 front
295/35 ZR18 rear
These are Alcoa forged rims..GM made in USA

The Alcoa's were only found on 2001 Z06s. They're made by Alcoa and are forged aluminum. The 2002-2004s are made by Speedline and are spuncast.

The Alcoas are stronger (forged vs. cast), but the Speedlines are a little under a pound per wheel lighter. Design wise the forged Alcoas have a slightly sharper edge.

Outside of rims are almost perfect..Inside a couple of slight nicks...No curb rash and not bent The pictures show the rears mounted on Drag Tires..but they are currently mounteds on the Toyos..Also includes black lug nuts.

I have had both the chrome and black wheels for awhile. The chrome are Forged EVO's by WELD..I could not decide which ones to sell or keep. I am trying to create some space in my garage. The ZO6 wheels made a huge difference in how the car accellerated because of the weight. I had a hard time deciding which set to sell so I let my wife decide....:shrug01:
 
I dont know if the acceleration is a big difference between the two, but the chrome is the better looking wheel in my opinion. The black is nice, but I have always preferred chrome.
