Simple answer is... if it's CCW it will look awesome. I don't see a bad looking set on this page, do you? All that matters is YOUR preference!!!!! One thing to think about... the more complicated the design, the harder they are to keep clean!! Even though they look great they are a pain.

I would go with these, SP16A...I have them also (don't have a pic handy sorry) IMO the 505A is a beautiful wheel, but everyone and their grandma has them I wanted something that looked a lot different than stock that's also why I choose the 16a's.

I'm partial to the classics myself. But if I went the 18/19 inch route Roushraven's wheels look amazing.

You see a fair number of Guys on the Forum with CCWs (505s, 500s etc.)

Now of all the C5s made I would suggest that far lest the 1/2 of 1% have CCWs. Whether they are 505s, 500s or whatever.

Get the wheel you like and I guarantee that in everyday life you will few if any Vettes with wheels like yours.
