Default CCW Wheels

Alright I need some help here! I am in love with the CCW classic wheels with the polished lip and black center, but how can I justify the money it will cost for them. By the time I pay for the wheels and the new rubber it will be more then I paid for the car. Some one talk me out of it and tell me that the AFS black ZR 1 wheels are just as good.

I cant talk you out of it............ because I want those same wheels.

From what I understand, the CCW classics are the least expensive of the CCW line.

Black zr1s look really good. Plus they are much cheaper. You could spend the money you save on something else for your car. But get what makes you happy.

I love them. But I couldn't justify paying that much for anything that doesn't make it go a lot faster. But it's what you want that matters here.

I like the look of the polished aluminum or chrome look. But on a silver car, black or gunmetal finish may look better.

Check ebay, they have some good prices on zr1 style wheels. There are some black ones in the c4 for sale section with tires for 750 plus shipping but you would need spacers.
