Dave as said today mate, they look great. I also think they look superb in the OEM silver colour along with the wing mirrors, they compliments the yellow and black theme.

Look rude David!

Get them done in Titan along with mirrors - will look even better IMO.

Spacers make them sit just right

Looks stunning!! Seeing as they look fresh and clean it would be a shame to paint them.

cheers fellas

suspension is OEM with SS+ ... so -10mm

these pics obviously were with a set of 4 OEM 19"s and tyres loaded in the car, so its sitting lower than it normally would ... just unloaded the wheels and so now abit more gap

Spacers are 10mm front and 12mm rear, but as the ET on the C6's are 36 (vs 29 OEM) it has the effect of 8mm and 10mm if they were stock 19"s

Also, i think I will leave painting for a while whilst funds recover and impending 'Ring trip looms !!

So what spacers did you use on the end dk? And do they sit on spiggots or do the fit the centre bore perfectly?

BTW when your car is on the rollers it looks like the rims are wider than the tyres and they are stretched on!

P_G

spacers are 12mm rear and 10mm front

they fit the centre bore perfect, no spiggots

the tyres are 255's on a 9.5J so they are abit streched, but im good at avoiding kerbs so no issue

255's on a 9.5 rim are a bit more than stretched! :biggrin3: :bowdown:
