Before some hammer on me, there is a reason why my wheels were painted black. I purchased a set of day 2 take off wheels and tires from a collector who bought them from Vince Emmy. These came off an original COPO early in life from what I was told. I cannot confirm that however. Usually I always see Dove grey on the backs of these while NOS wheels are commonly black. The fact that these were very low mileage take offs from a COPO was the reason why we restored them in black. In addition, the YH's I had off the Maroon 69 Z28 which was totally original and had survivor wheels were also back on the back so that is what I did. Pictured in the stack of tires/wheels off that Z28.
