The Forgestar CF5s have to be the easiest wheels to clean. Check out their other styles, too. And, you can get them pretty much in any color you want.

You are so right. Something about modern (and I include our 20 yr old cars in that category) cars that just don't gel with chrome. C3s and earlier, sure. 60-70s muscle cars? Sure.
JMHO........

I agree the C5 lines are smooth and the chrome is too harsh. Although I think a nice set of polished wheels look awesome and on a C5. JMHO

Never was a fan of putting other generation wheel on vettes. I like doing something different other than replacing stock wheels with other stock wheels. Go Forgestar, tsw, ccw, etc.
I went with 18/19 TSW Interlargos.

Hi ,I have a chance to get my hands on Zo6 c5 OEM wheels for my standard C5 and have near new G/Y F1 EMT's that are not as wide as the Zo6 has,can I use them or being run flats is it safe.
