CCW's what do you think, 18's front and back and yes those are 335's on the rear, so what do you think? Should I or should I stay with the Black GS wheels?

If it is one or the other set ... The Black GS wheels hands down!

I really like both sets of wheels. The only thing that seems a little off is that it looks like a lot of room between the tires and fender wells.

Unfortunately no, those are for my buddies C5, we just tried them on one side to see how they look, I think they look awesome.

If someone were to offer me a trade for my black GS wheels, I would really be tempted to do it.

Very nice looking wheel/tire combo, but if you keep them I think you need to lower the car to match to profile of the tires/wheels

You gotta remember, I had to jack the car up. The suspension didn't settle because I didn't drive the car around after I took it off the jack.

I was wondering why we are looking at 20 pictures of the passenger side!

Dump the g/s rims and step up to the wonderful world of 18" rims

Those look nice, but if it were mine I'd keep the GS's. Too much air between the tires and fenders.

If you DID keep them you should paint the calipers IMHO.

Mojo, hard to tell with wheels on one side, suspension not level and settled and tires needing some black; but has some potential. Suggest you go all out, put all four on, dress the tires, put a few miles on, and see how folks react.

Hope to see revised pics!

See ya! :thumbs:

Exactly, hopefully I'll get to try the whole setup and let the suspension settle, I can tell you it looks much better in person.

I don't have the $$$ anyway, so I'll be sticking with my current setup.
