As you may have seen on a another thread, Town Fair Tire scratched the snot out of my 16" OEM rims putting the new tires on.....after showing them the damage the agreed to replace the rims...well rather than buying brand new from Chevy they buy refinished ones...the refinished ones are more gray than silver..darker for sure....at first I balked and than said what the hell, lets go with it.


After getting them on I'm not sure that I made the right choice...they look a lot darker on the car than they did in the box thats for sure...from a distance they look pretty bright but when you get up close they have a real dark tone to them

I figure I am pretty much stuck with them as I accepted them and once on the car I don't think I can give them back

What do you guys think...bear in mind I use my OEM 16" for winter tires (Continental DWS Extreme Contact) and 17" OEM Polished for the spring, summer, fall......so not the end of the world but a different look for sure


























What do you think? Pics actually make the rims look a bit lighter than they are....in no sun they look...well gray lol

I agree. They look fine

Look all right, (personally) I would polish the gold tone OFF the center bow-ties..

What size tires are pictured ? Cause these look like 16" with all that tire sidewall..

Goose

Yes they are 16"........

They are a gray rim rather than the OEM brighter silver. Maybe just will take some time getting used to

I'm sure we would all see a differance with the 2 side by side, but they look ok to me. I can tell they are a little darker.

OK... Well, just consider then "unique" & don't sweat the small stuff..

Custom wheels! Anybody asks, tell 'em it cost extra.


They look great to me, it would be different if it was the back set or the front set and not all 4.
