08 Split Chrome Wheels
Anybody have any pictures of a yellow c6 with 08 split chrome wheels? I am trying to decide which rims to go with.

And, I do believe Rick Conti showed a pic of the new for '08 (mid-year) polished wheel being chromed. (5 spoke only, not split)

Rim is technically correct but either is appropriate. Bent rim, bent wheel, 6 one-way half dozen the other. Lighten up dude.

Rims are wheels! If you are referring to the rubber aspect of it then that would be called a "tire" not a wheel.
