IT wouldn't be so much rough as it'd jerk you around everywhere. Wish I could say those will look good on your car but I honestly dislike the Vette Zo6 rims.

i sent back the first set of rims i bought i was fooled by a pic of them they looked alot better in the picture they were boss 304's, 18's. they were to importy so now i want to go with something that belongs on an fbody car it's hard to purchase the right set of rims for a newer style car it's not like my 80 T/A where i can just throw on some cragars it it would look great that's why i figure i would go with a vette rim cause they seem to look really good on a newer fbody

Well I guess I know why I didn't hear back from you. I will also reserve judgement on the rims.

those are nice rims, but they kind of look like mustang bullit rims and tt2's and the only thing that suck's about that is that they are everywhere!
