Default Suggestions?

I have finally decided to replace my ranch wheels with some new ones. My dilema is that I can't find many (hardly any for that fact) that I like. They have to be all chrome (although I will probably have some part of them painted), fit my stock 01 (17's and 18's) without any fitment issues, have a nice deep lip on them and not be a Corvette wheel. If any of you out there in Forum Space have any suggestions, or even better, suggestions with a pic or two would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Default Wheels

Go to the West Coast Corvette web site. You can punch in what you have now for a C5 including the color. Then you can scroll through the various wheels and you will see what they will look like on your Vette.

CCWs are excellent choices. There have been a lot of posts here lately with various vendors coming out with new wheel designs for the Corvette. There are more choices now than ever for your car.
