I have chrome C6 Z06 wheels on my Navy Blue C5 coupe and get lots of compliments. You can still get them at West Coast Corvettes, and relatively cheap - under $1k.
Many places sell them for similar prices.
Any fellow owners have cleaning tips?
I also like steelies with trim rings and center caps, like these. I've wondered what they would look like on a C5 with proper sizing and offset. If anyone has a picture or could work some photoshop magic I'd love to see it!

There are aftermarket, larger diameter, Rally wheels available, in aluminum. IMHO, certain wheel designs don't translate well, to a larger diameter, and the Rally is one of them. The slots, in a 15" wheel, look well proportioned, but in a 17 or 18", they look too big. But as I said, that's just my opinion.

Rally wheels have been my fave since I had them on my ‘69 Malibu. It will take me some time to plug an exact replica into a C5 pic, but here are a few other attempts. The one on the silver car is closest I could find, but there used to a polished one. The others are ‘representative’ of a old school Cragar look and another full disk style. I always thought I’d like a
Cragar on my car, but I’ve changed my mind.

They are available in standard 17" and 18" diameters and bolt right on. Look on westcoastcorvette.com under detailing supplies. No, I don't work for them, but I wouldn't turn down an endorsement fee.
