I'm going to get new wheels for my C5 white targa top, just not sure what I like. Can you send me a picture of your car? I have wagon wheels now, thanks.

Mine has the SS ring around the outside and SS bolts in between each spoke. I think I will be painting mine all black or getting them powder coated. That SS trim ring turns it off for me. I want to keep it all White and the wheel all Black w/ blue accents in the interior and brakes calipers.





Could not see the inside of the rim very well on the first pic so I added another.

Lots of great choices out there. I'm running some C6 chrome replicas in C5Z06 sizes/offsets. Rears are 18x10.5 with 315/35/18s.

These are great looking vettes and wheels. What a difference from the wagon wheels. Sorry but the black wagon wheels are still wagon wheels.

I'm still undecided. Thanks.

Mine has the stock 2000+ wheels (caps removed for the track.)

As this thread grows, prepare for it to become less about wheels, though.
