17" all round, apparently not "proper" C6 (I was informed C6's didn't come with 17" originally) but that don't matter to me, I drive a C4

Your solution to "the rub" was what?
I'm not a big fan of C6 wheels but yours do look good. I believe the yellow does well with them and the calipers also maybe help the cause.

I have the same ones on my 85.(powder coated black) I had a lot of rub... until I replaced my 28 year old suspension. Tight springs. Poly. New shocks. Never rubs now... only hurts on bumps now :P

I haven't gotten around to painting the calipers yet, still thinking about a C5 brake conversion but I like the look of the C5 thin spokes..
