Flame suit on...good condition clean wagon wheels look good to me. The C5 Z wheels look good too.

The 19/19 Crays are the best looking, then the all black C6Z

But you were bold enough to state it first.

After all of these wheels I have settled on what my ideal set would be, which is a 19/19, polished lip and silver or brushed spokes.

I actually have NOT figured out my electrical issue yet. Everything is fine, just no use of TPS or my key fob. Kind of sucks having no key fob, but it is going to an electrical guru here in the next few weeks to hopefully get figured out and fixed!

18x10.5 on all 4. Track set. Unsure if I'm sold enough to rock them 24/7
















Shined up the tips!

I never liked the wagon wheels on my 98 so I put on a set of thin soke 2000 wheels as soon as I saw them on a new 2000 Corvette....

BUT today.... of all those wheels the wagon wheels actually look pretty good...and UNUSUAL because 99.9 percent of us early C5 owners replaced them year ago...

Black wheels look terrible in my opinion... a Good friend owns a 96 Grand Sport (black wheels) and I own a 88 ANC (white wheels) we have a lot of fun "debating" which look worst... at least we both agree that each car they : "is".... lol "ok" with those wheels BUT neither of us would put them on any other car....

PERSONALLY I do not like the "rubber band" 2 inch tall sidewalls on any car no matter what wheels are on the car ...looks like "ricer" crap to me...
