Finally Got Some Winter Shoes For My ZL1

Being a very good winter driver, I drove on my stock Goodyears last year. That said, when there was any accumulation of snow, I left my car home.

This year I intend to drive every day unless there is a clearance issue.

I just bought 20 inch Niche wheels with:
Front = 255/45R20 Blizzak DM-V1
Back = 275/40R20 Blizzak DM-V1

What do you guys think of the wheels? They are black and machined black (almost a gunmetal). I couldn't buy ugly rims for the winter because it would kill me every time that I look at the car and see that it looks blah.

BTW, I got them from Best Wheels Deals. They were very nice to deal with and guaranteed that the wheels will fit my car. You should look as some of their inventory if you can.

Good call. You're going to love the way she moves in the snow now! I really like those rims.

Wow. Dam near a direct copy of the Z06 'spider' wheel.

Which is a good thing! I like them (I have them on my 427 - the GM wheels, that is).

I'll probably be selling them next winter if/when I get my Z06. Ugh!!

When I get them mounted on my ZL1, I'll post some pictures. Thanks.

I always loved running blizzak tires.
Love the rims and your guts to drive these cars in the winter.
