You have certainly gone up the ladder over the years.
I'm too cheap to ever change that many times, and still sitting on stock polished wheels after 4 years.
Your last two choices look good to me.

The CCW's are what i have wanted for as long as i can remember so this is where I'm stopping. I have been lucky enough that I have gotten within $50 of what I bought the 2 sets of C6 replicas when I sold them and didn't replace tires till I got the CCW's. I guess I'll keep the wagons here if someone wants them with the vette If I ever sell it. Don't see that happening though.(selling the vette of course)

I think all those wheels look good on the car, but hard to argue with the looks of the CCWs as the best.

Where did you get the C-6 Z wheels and what size are they? That's what I'm looking for but in stock sizes

Thanks!
