Size Matters
I finally found THE RIMS to die for 
Talked to two different distributors today and they both said that they will fit a C5 
The only problem
They only come in 20s.
I'm lowered on stock bolts. I've seen many posts saying that 20s are terrible but then again I've read postings of 19 and 20 staggereds.
Am I asking for a sizeable amount of trouble if I go 20s all the way around.

Go 19/20.
Big wheels make stock brakes look weenie, so if you plan on upgrading to BB's in the future you need to order your wheels with that in mind. You can't run BB's on wheels not built for them, as the won't have the clearance.

I think the real problem with going with the 20s is the reduced sidewall height that is available. I ran a set of 19/20s on my '00 for a while and always worried about going over a deep pothole.
