Don't sell the original rims and use something that can be taken off for accents or you will have a very limited audience for that car when it comes time to sell it.
What’s your issue with Savini?? Savini has great customizable designs. These will be my everyday or show wheels. I will probably wind up with three sets. OEM, show, track.
Their wheel designs are not complimentary, they are always tacky and overdone, and MORE is not always better. Stick to a premium line Brixton, Vossen, HRE, ANRKY, 1221

About 4+ wheel companies as vendors on CF are California companies. Such as HRE, as well as at least 2 in the Los Angeles area. I may not like all their designs, but that's my opinion and, for now, I still don't have to buy them.
Ok, so I had to do it. I ordered these Savini rims and having them color match to the carbon flash metallic with the red accents as shown.
21x12 in rear
20 x 9 in front
slight outset so the tire aligns with the fender edge
i am trying to get Pirelli PZero Nano tires as well.
i will be adding a fine red accent to the side vent surround, front splitter and rear diffuser to tie it all together!
6 to 8 weeks for custom rims. Can’t wait!!
Now the car will be Italian American like me!
All that matters is if you like them. For some they will find them attractive and to others some what on the tacky side. I of the later group but if you like them then again who cares what anyone else thinks.
I am sure you would find my taste in wheels to probably be boring. Hope you have lots of enjoyment out of your new C8 !!!

I completely disagree. These wheel are very complimentary to the design of the car, and the colors are a dead match. So your generalizations are ridiculous. Everyone has their own taste, but if you don’t see how well the look fits the C8, you eye for auto design is questionable at best!
That's laughable since that's my job LOL
We design and build award winning exotics and customs for clients across the country, but hey what makes me an expert, apparently its all nonsense, thank you for your compliment!

Sounds like your crap smells like roses. Experts pretty much suck, except in their own fat heads.
So I guess everyone who doesnt like them (which seems to be the majority of opinions so far- including mine) is blind, nuts, retarded, ridiculous, haters, jealous b!+ches (your words, OP). Someone seems triggered that we don't all love your wheel choice... But carry on. Your money, your car, your choice.
