"Gumby" Wheels on C5

I am looking at a set of C6 "Gumby" wheels for my black C5, anyone running these that can please share a picture? Thanks.

I've been told C6Z brakes will fit under those wheels, with thin spacers.

Looks like they would work and if you like the style, go for it.

incase you don’t find them or looking for a better fit we can easily build you the same design in a forged version with wider options and also a better stance.
like a 19x9.5 /19x11 or 20x11 rear etc or maybe even a smaller 18x9.5/19x11 set up

all of our wheels are offered in custom specs, although we are listed on corvette we also do a lot of Porsche and other vehicles.
usually for the C5 we get asked for 18x9.5/19x11 and 19x9.5/20x11 but we can make any size, width and off set range needed
