Anyone have some sweet JDM wheels on their C7? Talking about Works, Advans, Volks, etc.
Got the dreaded cracked wheels on my Grand Sport and would rather get something different from the usual Vossen/HRE style wheels I see on most.

I suspect Volk G25 if available in the correct fitment, would look quite elegant on a C7

Figured I'd update this as I've given up on the quest for cool wheels. After emailing Work, Advan, Rays, and a few other JDM wheel companies, the only wheels that would fit over the brakes left little lip and little concave available, resulting in a terrible look. Ended up getting the Forgestar D5 Drag Pack in 18x10 and 18x12.

Thanks for closing the loop. I'm a big Volk fan and have had numerous sets on cars and even a truck over the years. I wanted to be fairly "unique" and run a set my my C7, but the aftermarket wheel selection for the Z51 is... poor.

Oh well, could have looked nice!
