I see these wheels around town on a Lexus SC430 quite frequently. They look perfect on the Lexus and go really nice with most luxury cars.

Gary, those wheels are just awesome on a C5. If I had the cash for them, they would be on mine right now.

If done on the right car (including vettes), these will look good.

I am surprised so many people don't like them. I am not a fan of the painted versions but I think the chrome versions look sweet.

C5 Wheels

I'm fond of the HRE wheels. I purchased the 847R's with the Brembo Gran Tourismo Hi Performance Brake package. I have not seen a finer combination than that.
