looks like a good deal man, their trader feedback is good also. The rims look to be in good condition too.

I like the TT2's better, but I just noticed the price of shipping.. Its $189 to ship those Z06 wheels!!! :(. I guess thats where they get you. Its about $565 total for them, but thats still a pretty decent deal.

I found a set of TTII's for $989 shipped awhile back and those were 17x9.5"s up front and 17x11"s out back and i didnt think that was to bad of a price but we'll just have to see how much money i can scrape up at christmas haha

I think that you can take the center piece off and just buy a blank one if you wanted. Not positive, but I'm pretty sure anyway.

I bought my C5s from a 2002 SS Camaro and it had the "SS" on the centercaps. Used some laquer remover (I think thats what I used, was awhile ago...) and the emblems came right off, looks like they werent even there now (Nothing left, just chrome now.... Very clean :D).

Yes, not sure if they sell/make them anymore though. Look on Ebay or other "For Sale" forums and you will find some eventually.

have you checked tomswheelz??? they usually have pretty killer deals on both the rims ur interested in. Im also lookin for the same rims just havent made a decision on which ones to go with yet. I have a dark green-grey metallic z28 and i cant find pics of anyone with this color or with wheels on their car either. So its tough for me. But tomswheelz quoted me pretty good prices in the past for wheel and tire combo's. Just depends on what u wanna pay and stuff. good luck bro

same color as my car:-p but i have stock rims haha

and yea tomswheelz has pretty good prices, obviously the rims are going to weigh a good bit more than genuine Z06's but you still get the look and the ability to run wider tires.

im pretty sure that if they have the vette emblems, they're not stickers. i think its either raised up or etched into the cap.

Those are a good buy, but remeber thier polished not chrome! IF they were chrome, they would be 600.00+. Nothing a lil zoop seal can't take care of though!
