Looks good, and lowering is the way to go. 
Lowered with *NEW* wheels... (PICS!)

Very nice! I like the gunmetal look with black.
I tried lowing my Vette, but due to all the road work I have in my area I returned it to stock height. It was like nails on a chalkboard every time I scraped.
Lowering does make the C5 look great, so maybe when they're done, I might lower it 1/2 of what I lowered it before. Just enough to cover some tire/fender gap...

Thanks for the compliments guys! 
I can tell you this. I've washed them once so far and can already see scratches on the rear lip. The front is still fine. I put some wax on them. Maybe that will help?
These tires are not bad at all handling-wise. But the Fusions have to have the ugliest sidewall I've ever had on my car.
