Default Need wheels/air intake

Just purchased a 1997 corvette black and it has the gray wheels on it nothing special I was looking into getting new wheels something in chrome due to that would look pretty good. Anyone have any suggestions wheels that they have seen that would look good and any pics would be appreciated. Also is the K&N air intake a worth while investment do you feel an improvement when installed?

Any air intake is better than stock. Most go with Vararam. This is a true cold air intake and the best bang for the buck. Go on ebay or in the part section here for good deals on some chrome wheels. Toms wheels has good deals.
