Polo green / aftermarket wheels?

Have you looked through the Photo section under C4? There are all kinds of pictures of cars and wheels and that may help in finding the right wheels for your car.

Looking for pics for some ideas on changing the wheels on my car...they're the wrong ones anyway, and the clear has seen better days. Lot of pictures on the web, but most seem to have the original wheels on them. Would appreciate anybody that has something other than sawblades on a Polo car posting up pics. Looking at C6 Z06 style right now, but need other ideas as well.
Thanks!
Thanks!
There are a few posted that look really nice.

Thanks. you can see more of a side shot in my sig pic. Yes I run the stock brake system with these wheels. I run these in the summer time and the stock wheels with 4 snow tires mounted for the winter rainy season.

I've been blessed. My 96 vert came with these wheels 4 years ago.

I am also looking at wheels for my 96 polo green LT4. I would like the chrome ZR1 replicas, but cant decide whether to get the 11" wide rear wheels, or 9.5" all the way around. I'm leaning towards the 9.5's because it looks like the 11's stick out from the wheel well. The 11's also have a 50mm offset, which is the same as the Grand Sport, so they must poke out a bit and I don't like that look. Please keep the pictures coming! Those C6 five stars look great too. I can't decide what to get!

So here is something to consider. IF you run the 9.5" on all 4 corners, you will be able to rotate your tires from front to back. This is going to add significantly to the life of the tires. And your car will still look cool from the back.
It may even allow you to spend a bit more on a better quality tire
