I would go with the C6 in chrome, they will stand out well with your red coupe. I may be a little biased, I just ordered a set of C6 ZO6's for my black coupe.

My vote is C6's in chrome, but go with you heart, its your car.

Between the two, I'd opt for the C5 Z06 wheels in chrome, but they both look great. Hard to make a bad decision.
