I asked the question why-- Johhny said there is not enough call throughout the USA for all chrome wheels now, Aluminum polished or the Hyper silver with the chrome lip only is what the demand calls for .
Yea they are HP Evo Hypersilver w/ a chrome lip...That is some damn good photoshopping...I dont know even how to do it but looks authentic...As far as the all chrome, I originally felt the same way but after much research and picture viewing I am no longer a fan of them...the design of the wheel represents a more sporty look and show look and the chrome one clashed in a sense...it also looked very cheap in my opinion...did not see alot of either...just an opinion...like I said I felt the same way until I seen it on a car or two and then changed my mind...My wheels have the 3.5 chrome lip thats enough for me its absolutely beautiful!
I will take your advice !!
There are a lot of 5 spoke wheels out there which sort o a 9" f tells me to go to a different syle. Not sure if i want that deep of a lip though on a 9" rim ?? I got 6 weeks before i make my decision on what custom wheel i will purchase,
Thats the only thing I hate about HP wheels, I have the Zip's wish they came in 10" or 11"s.Quote:

The lip's stagered on those Weld's?
Yes they are.. Its sets them off nice..
Man that year...black...z06...is on of my favorite of all time...BUT with the dark wheels! That car is made to look mean and aggressive...not chromed out...red, yellow, sure, but the black was my fav for that reason it was all dark...Just my opinion...just looks sick. Its a f'n vette!:rockon:
17x11/17x9.5 TT2's with Strano springs
