Looking for wheel ideas!

Just picked up a completely stock chrome wheels and all grand sport. While I know the chrome is for some it’s not for me. I’ve had polished SP500s on a C5Z but it doesn’t really work on C6 to me. Also had ccw Classics on the same car with gloss black lip and matte black face but the car was red. Any other ideas for a black Grand Sport?

Ive always wanted some forgeline vx1r, but those are like 6 grand. The OZ Ultraleggera looks great, but theyre super rare in 18/19 sets.

No doubt I would love to have those too. Just one I found searching.

I just slapped some C6 ZR1 style wheels on my car this weekend. Really improves the look in my opinion.

Forgelines, ftw.

My '09 is black, and I was considering going with a polished wheel, until I saw these:

"Dark Transparent Smoke." Black/grey is a winning combo.

Now thinking maybe forgestars candy teal in a CF5V (forgestar dealers dm me). I know it’s not for everybody but the chromes gotta go and a black wheel is just boring on a black car.

That would be a bold choice. May I suggest bronze wheels if you wanted something different and less risky.

Appreciate the suggestion. I’ve actually had bronze burst f14s before but unless they were in direct sunlight they just looked black. I do like the above though.
