Default Need advice on wheels please

I have a '99 pewter FRC with the stock silver thick spoke (wagon wheel) rims. I want to change them but I don't know what would look best. I'm torn between the stock thin spoke or Z06 wheel. Plus I don't know if I want chrome or silver. I don't know how the chrome would look with this color. (I put chrome wide spokes on a torch red '97 I had.) Any ideas, opinions, or pictures would be very welcome.

My car's MSG, but looks silver-ish or close to pewter in this pic ... I just got my wheels last month from a friend ... I have gotten so many compliments ... not to mention I love them! Really set off the color. These are chromed, not polished. Hope this helps.

Those look sweet. That's kind what I'm leaning to at the moment. More pics please!

If you decide on thin spokes in silver I have a set for $325.00 plus shipping.
