I need your opinion on a wheel choice....
Here is pic of my C5 with it's current C6 chromies and a PhotoShop of it with the new C6 Z06 wheels in competition grey. Please give me your opinions as to which you like better. Thanks Zuti

Neither... you should buy some of those RARE WAGON WHEELS that were so popular before 2K... 
Sorry...
They both look good.. it depends on what you are looking to achieve...the first pic is more muscular...the second is a lighter look... not as tough... maybe more sexy...??
Gee, that's hard to spell out on here...sorry.

Here is my educated opinion... The first set (Chromed ) have the bling factor and look nice...
The second picture is unique.... it compliments the car, it is subtle and is stealth like...
Everyone likes Bling, but bling can get old...
Both wheels look great but I vote for the second, only because they have unique appeal... if I rated them on a scale of one to ten..
I would give the chromed ones a Seven
I would give the second set an Eight. Only because the second set looks so good on a black car.

Chrome wins shows. Subtle and stealth like gets lots a nice compliments in the mall parking lot.

Z06 Chromies...chrome (IMHO) always seems to toughen up a black car...if that is in fact what you're after
