Default C6 wheels!

Picked up a set of C6 OEMs with some BFG G-Force KDWs off an extremely nice gentleman off of Craigslist. After doing some searching around I found a few people on here with C6 wheels and asked about the spacer issue. After a set of 3/8" spacers for the rear... she's done!

PICS!

My only complaint, if you could even call it that, are the C6 emblems. Anyone know where to get these type of center caps with the C5 logo? I saw a set for sale on here a while ago but they were chrome. :/

Also what would a set of chrome C5 wheels (2001) go for nowadays with sh*t tires and no TPMS sensors?

Thanks!

Anyone know about where I could get some center caps for these with the C5 logo? I'm not a fan of using a decal or something like that.

Looks great. Slower it a bit and you'll be set.

I have the same wheels on my ride with 305/30's and a 7/16" spacer. I love em'
