Polo green / aftermarket wheels?
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!

ZR1 Wheels'
They are really Corvette Grand Sport Wheels. Best Wheel for the Corvette in my humble racing opinion. They won't break in hard corning. 'I have seen lesser wheels R.I.P. fatal racing. I have personally witnessed after market wheels rip off the lug nuts, and destroy the car.

I saw these http://www.vintagewheelworks.com/products/wheels/v48 on a green Nova in Popular hot rodding this month. I think it might look pretty good. I just bought some HRE wheels for my Polo Green Just waiting on tires.

Here's my old Polo Green '92 vert with chrome AFS ZR-1-style wheels. I got these just after I bought the car in '97 and they were being made in the US at that time. AFS still sells on fleabay Do a search for "Corvette Wheels" and you should get a number of listings.

Unfortunately, my "vert has gone to Corvette heaven. I sold it back in '05 to a fellow club member (his wife wanted it because of the color combo). About 6 months later, they were on a trip thru Montana when they got hit in Missoula by a drunk driver in an F-150. They weren't hurt outside of scrapes, but it took them 6 months before they would show me pics of the wreck.
Drove that car on the 50th Anniversary Caravan from WA to BG and back.
If I ever get another C4, it will be a Polo Green car.
