Time For A Wheel Change
I'm thinking about changing wheels to the style shown below for my 99. I'll stick to the factory widths, diameters, and want to be able to use the EMT sensors without banding them to the wheels. Suggestions on brands and vendors?

Wheel change
I am in the same mode except mine is a 2000 model and I am also wanting to keep the same wheel size. I "think" I have narrowed it to the C6 style you showed or the ZO6 style. West Coast Corvette has a great deal on the ZO6 wheels for our models going on now.

Just got mine last Friday. Now I need some tires for the back. Have to wait for Monday to come for that though. TomZWheels for me. Great price and good to deal with. I got the 17x9.5 and 18x10.5.
