Default chrome rims help

I currently have some repo zo6 rims in black. im looking to change to chrome. I would like ones with a deep dish design with no rivits. I saw some on a yellow zo6 here in the forum but cant seem to locate the picture. The car has many photos of it in motion with the tires spinning and also standing still. If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great. I have mounted 335's so i would need a rim wide enough to account for that. The larger the lip on the rear rims the better.

Thanks for the help.

Just wanted to clearify if you're looking for c5 Z06 style or c6 z06 style. I found lots of c6 deep dish z06 style wheels, but haven't found much in the way of the c5 z06 style.

There are lots of wheel threads on this forum that should help you in your search.

I bought some for a C5 here. Very happy with them. Might not be as deep at you want.
They have them without the rivets.
