Default Another wheel pic request/blue vettes
I am thinking about replacing the stock wheels on my Lemans blue C5 with either C5 or C6 Zo6 wheels, and was hoping for some pics. Any other wheels would be great also, but I don't think I can afford the pricier ones. House of wheels seems to have some pretty good deals going. Please post what size/type of tires you are running also.
Thanks.

House of Wheels, chrome thin spokes. I'm happy with them for the quality and price. CCW's would be nice, but $$$$$$

Either of those wheels would look good. As an alternative, you might want to consider a set of the Crays. Can be had in chrome, hypersilver or black.

These are also on the list of maybes? Did you end up buying the crays? I know you were interested in them for a while.

I've thought that many times also.
If you make the change go with crome or black crome
I still have my stock polished and no pictures for ya.
