I have a set of chrome Z06 reproductions. I like them and they have held up well. Your choice will depend on how much you want to spend. If money is no object, consider HRE's, Ronals, CCW's, etc.

Guys!

Thanks for the pics. Unfortunately now, I'm more unsure than before, all these wheels look AWESOME!

I'm leaning towards the I Forged Aero's . My Vette is precision red, thinking of getting the center painted black - also plan on painting the brake calipers PR as well.

Opinions please....

I think they'd look good on a C6 but I don't know about black centers. If you paint your calipers and/or your rotor hats that might be too busy.

Just my 2 cents. Good luck.

So you're looking at black with a polished lip pretty much? I think that style looks great, is your rear bumper painted to match or do you have the black accent? I think that

would tie the black in quite nicely. Red Calipers should look nicely as well!
