American Racing Wheels
When I had my first Vette, a '72, I had a set of the American Racing Wheel 200S's(15x8.5) with BF Goodrich Radial T/A's(G60-15), it was a very popular wheel/tire combo for the Road Racing crowd (SCCA-B/Production)
I checked to see is they offered a wheel for the C5, and they have two.
Here are the two styles they offer. I'm kinda diggin' the second one...
I've yet to see a C5 with them, and wanted to ask is anyone has them or a picture of them on a C5?

Yo-El had them on his C5 about a year ago or so. Some other company made them and American Racing bought them out.
I'll see if I can find a picyture of them.
They are very expensive from AR

I was in the tire store the other day & happened upon some AMERICAN Racing wheels.......I noticed that they were made in CHINA!!! Just be careful, maybe the higher end products arent made there, but these ones that I saw were definately.

You are right, very expensive..
I could get them at cost and still way more than what my CCW's were..

I'm running the set of Imola Design 22's that YO-EL had on his car. My sig shows them. Very nice wheels, but yes, expensive.
