Light Pewter Metallic- 2001 Camaro SS
I personally like chrome. I hate black. It makes the wheels look dirty. If you weren't going to go chrome gunmetal isn't bad. Here's a few shots of my current and old wheels.

C6 Z06 DD 18x8.5 F / 18x10.5 R

Chrome with pewter for sure. Black only looks decent with a red car.

a lot of people say chrome and stuff like that, but i'm all for going opposite of what the norm is. i like the way black wheels look but maybe if i just got different chrome wheels i will like that.
are the only wheels yall recommend the z06 wheels or are there others

Pewter Metallic- 2000 Pontiac Trans Am WS6
since i dont like how chrome rims look on pewter cars i also decided on black rims for my pewter T/A,preferbly the C6 Z06 wheels since i have the CETA mod on my Trans Am i think black would match perfectly,one question did your Camaro SS come from the factory with a black sail panel?

Pewter Metallic- 2000 Pontiac Trans Am WS6
i asked for opinions & suggestions on putting black rims on my pewter Trans Am & i got all kinda negative comments & responses,but yet & still im still buying the black C6 Z06 Wheels,some say dont do the Vette wheels i say why not? Vette wheels look great on fbodys,i think no matter how many ppl disagree with your choice at the end of the day its your car & your money,do whatever it is that will satisfy you
