I just love these kinds of threads: Nice frigging C5 and custom wheel eye candy.

They are definitely the most popular wheel type on the forum, but in compared to the couple hundred thousand C5 owners, a few dozen sets of CCWs is not very much. I have never seen another set on the road except at the annual bowling green cruise in.

Uhhh, I do.
As stated earlier,otherwise I never would have posted this.
I am not entirely sure if you are being sarcastic, supportive or what.

I just thought it would be interesting to see exactly how many there are here.

And you never stated if you had a set or not,but I'll count you anyway

Current count21
