Which wheels to get????

Trying to decide on wheels, can some of you post pics of wheels on your cars? Where you got them and how they were to deal with? Thanks in advance

go to www.ronalusa.com/cars/chevy_c5_z06_vette.html
I have 18" front and 19" rear LZ ronal wheels with crome outer and silver center to match my silver 99 coupe. you can check them out on my my picture link. They have several paint and lip options plus you can use the factory air sensors....worth looking at their sight. Contact Gary he is the one to talk to about vettes, tell him another customer refered you and he may give you a discount.

I agree with Jim. Just spoke to Gary yesterday and he was extremely helpfull. I'm thinking about getting the Full chrome LZ's for my 03 AE.

You should give an indication as to your budget. Aftermarket wheels can cost anywhere from $500-6000 and beyond. Here are my CCW505a wheels. These are from www.completecustomwheel.com CCW has the best service around. I think you would be hard pressed to find a place that caters to customers this well.

Cool wheels...

I'm biased, but I do like our wheels best...and reasonably priced..Our wheel and TIRE PACKAGE is about the cost of some aftermarket wheels.
Our wheels fit the C4, C5-z06, and new C6 cars...too...
See them at
http://www.ronalusa.com/cars/chevy_c5_z06_vette.html on C5/z06's

and on the new C6 models at

Sorry I should have posted a budget, around 5k I'd say. All the wheels look great, tough decision.
