New Wheels
I am going to buy new tires and was thinking of upgrading my wheels from the 5 spoke stock GM painted ones. Besides 5 spoke chrome what looks good? I saw some on the cover of the new Mid America cover that look good? Input?

The CCWs are a great looking wheel. Expensive, but certainly make the car look . Other choices could be chrome Z06 wheels, the new C6 wheel, HRE wheels (I'm partial to the 547's - expensive also) or a wheel that Xtreme Motorsports sells that looks like the Mallet wheels.

Glad to see some guys with other than std 5 spoke GM. I will try to check out the CCW and the C6 wheels. Any body got a side view of the car with the CCW wheels? So far the pictures are great but close up.

The only recommendation I would make is to be careful. My 2004 Coupe came with the 'silver wheels." Immediately I wanted to change so I bought a set of Z06 chrome. Finally realized that, in my opinion, That the factry wheel in polished or chrome for the money looks about as good as any.
