I was shooting for the barbie look i think i hit it good…they are 1 7/8" primaries lg pros

I’m positive the brakes will work I’v looked into it twice over…its the actual offset of the rims not the style…the c6 style nock off rims will not let them work unless its the correct offset or you run the 10.5 in rims in front…and the z51 brakes arn’t the zo6 brakes they are the 13.5 inch rotors not the 14 inchers that the zo6 get…ur zo6’s will be slightly better

Oh

My

God

I agree with Stealtth’s comment about the rims. And your comment about his name and this comment above are both stupid comments.

His name is Stealtth because he owned one when he joined the board. The extra “T” is for turbo.

Black wheels are nice, and they look MUCH nicer than those dam chrome rims before, but im not a fan of a visible wheel gap 😉

Thanks for all the responce fellas ! I actually really like how they came out and i’m happy with them. they are also a lot easier to keep “looking” clean…They are also lighter…no slips yet but after she gets tuned sometime i’ll post um up. I myslef actual thought that the rims being all black may not work but in the end i’m happy thanks for both the pros and cons! to each their own right? ps nice cruzer! i think i’m throwing the cop hubs on my impala just for fun lol:D
