Looking for new wheels
I am looking to upgrade my current wheels - Looking pics of a silver vette with black wheels or chrome wheels. I have a 98 coupe with stock wagon wheels - (not chrome) Want to see what it would look like before I buy.
Any recommendations would be helpful.
Thanks

Tough to say since you didn't say what price range you were looking at.
If price isn't much of an issue, I think these from CCW are just beautiful:
But if you're looking for something a bit cheaper, the motosports look great.
In chrome
or in black
Finally, at MY end of the scale, I don't think you can beat chrome Z06 wheels.

Have you considered the SSR GT3's? Here is a nice silver vert with them. Gives the car a nice, rich, exotic look. (IMO)

You're looking about 1/2 price for a very nice set of HRE's...

While mine is not silver (it's pewter), you can see how a set of chrome Z06 wheels look on it. You've got lots of options when it comes to wheels. Good luck.
