Z06 factory rims question

[slashnick]

Do all Z06s come with thoes greyish rims or is there a chrome rim option?

The 2001 thru 2004 Z06 rims are all painted that dark grey color.... EXCEPT for the 2004 Z16 option that will get polished rims. Do a search for Z06 Z16 option and you should get a pic.

Cool. Thanks, this settles an argument I was having with a friend. I was wrong, I thought chrome was always an option.

I guess I have seen a lot of aftermarket rims on Z06s.

It's such a shame that you can get the chrome Z06 rims for a Cavalier and not for a Corvette!

I didn't know one could get Z06 rims for a Cavalier.... but I do know you can't order a LS6 in a Cavalier... :L :L :L :L

Actually, the 2001 wheels are a markedly darker gray than the '02/'03 wheels, and some of the '03 wheels seem a shade lighter still.

I have seen cars that dealers have added chrome rims to prior to sale, but they're just not available that way from the factory.
