I'd go Z06, but get the originals, preferably forged.

In repops I like the early style C6 Z06 chromes. Repops will provide; 18x8.5 frt, and 19x10 rr with C5 offsets.

I like them both, but I lean more toward the deep dish look right now. So I'd recommend the deep dish thin spokes.

I prefer the thin spokes to the C5Z06 style.

Thin spokes look classic on C5's. Deep dish makes them look that much better!

Why would anybody spend a chunk of change on wheels that look like every stock Corvette in the country? To each his own.

I have the deep dish thin spokes. They look nice but you can't find center caps with colored logos that fit them. You're stuck with plain chrome center caps.
