What a great color on a C5. I think that would be an awsome combo.

I have been thinking the same thing. I like my chrome spokes but plan on getting bigger sizes when my tires need replacing. I have been looking at 20" 19" combo.

It's going to hard to find what you want...not many cars were produced in your color and to find someone with the wheels you want will even be harder. If you have photoshop change the color of my car

Thank you very much for the attempts. I have been searching all day and still cannot find one. My father owns a new Z and I love the wheels, I am just sick of trying to keep the polished aluminum looking good on mine. I have thought about chroming the wheels I already have but was very curious to see what the new Z wheels would look like on my car. I am not a big fan of too much bling, and fairly short on funds, so I want to make sure that I like them before forking over that kind of money....thanks again for the help everyone...Dan

I got mine from Bob at House of Wheels and the price was under 1K shipped(no lugnuts I had McGard nuts) They are 18x9.5 in front and 19x11 rear. They do come in standard c-5 and c-5 zo6 sizes. (17 18's) Good luck and I love mine and Bob was great to deal with. Had them in 4 days!!.

Blue is a hard color to play with, and it's much easier to change the wheels. Since you're asking, I think that they look Sharp! Here goes:

I took the wheel off of the Z and attempted to put it on mine-the Z wheel is polished, not chrome and was taken from a pic with different light-my not so great attempt in paint... left the front on normal so I could compare.

A bonus picture...father and son vettes...thought id share since you dont see many nassau blue vettes...thanks Dan

A sunny day...

You're Welcome! Glad to help!

I was in no way knocking you. I was just trying to help out. You did a whole bunch better than I did when I first started using it. Just keep practicing and look on the web for tutorials, and you'll get better. The secret is practice. It's a little overwhelming at first because it does so much! Just hang in there, you'll get it.

You might want to try an easier color to play with to start. White is pretty easy to work with and is forgiving, believe it or not black isn't bad either.

I've got a digital pen in the closet (along with a Wacom digital tablet) and I find it easier to use the mouse. I thought that it'd be just like drawing....boy, was I wrong!
