Yeah they should look good on my Black 98. I may sand and paint them to match the darker grey of the 02 Z06 wheels.

awsome... you got them in stock C5 or 275/40 17 form right?

I wouldn't mind getting the Z06 wheels w/ the 295 18's for my rear.. but they'd be expensive as hell and tires would probably be even worse

For a shifter I highly recomend the Pro 5.0! It is awesome, JI have driven friends cars with the Hurst's, and B&M's, but the 5.0 is way better in my book.

thanks man, yeah i've heard nothing but great things about the 5.0 and there all roughly the same price.. so that one seemed like the best buy for me to go w/.... i think i might of fixed my launching problem somewhat... when it was warmer outside ( sunny and 50's-60's) i dumped the clutch around 2000 then got it to spin a little bit then let off some to catch it then got back on it.. and it worked like a charm... my tires aren't the greatest though.. so that may be another reason... but my tires seem to hold traction alot better in warmer weather than in cold... probably has something to do w/ raod temperature and tire temps too

No pics yet, the total with shipping to Wa state was $687.00. I am going to pay him today, and hope to have them and my new F1s on soon though. I will post pics as soon as I can. They should be sweet.

I like those wheels... it seems almost any vette wheel lookes good on z28's. Have you guys seen many z28's w/ torque thrust style rims? what do you guys think of those?
