First one that comes to mind is John at CCW - they make some of the best looking wheels out there for the C5 and customer service is tops.
There are a number of other forum vendors that can really help you out too - try JW Motoring, House of Wheels, Corvette Garage, Xtreme Motorsports, or Corvettes of Houston.

I too had the polished 5 spokes and runflats but this last summer I put on 18/19's C6zo6 wheels from Corvette Garage. I also put new sensors in because they were near end of life anyway and were also from Corvette Garage. The tires are Nitto INVO that are very close to stock overall height of the runflats. These tires are defintely less noisy than the runflats and they handle awesome but if I get a flat I'm screwed. anyways, here are the details and a pic.
(C6 Z06 Wheels)
Front: 18x9.5
Rear: 19x11

Front Tire: 265/35-18
Rear Tire: 305/30-19

There are some great aftermarket styles out there. If you are looking into replica's too they have many options these days (larger sizes, other colors, wider lips, etc.) For the replicas check out www.jwmotoring.com. Thats who I got my 18/19 C6Z replicas in black with polished wider lips. I love them. He's great to work with and an approved forum vendor. He's very active here on the forums so you can just shoot him a message with any questions.
