Got it narrowed down to these two. The VS is 19x8.5/+34, 20x11/+45. The VT is 19x9/+35, 20x11/+40. Seems like +40 would push it out a little further than +45 and don't want any part of the wheel or tire outside the wheel well. I could change the offset but this is what Andy recommended for a flush fitment.
I’d go with the first set — they’ll sit really well on the car and look right at home. Sometimes the simplest choice ends up being the best match.
First set being the first photo or first one in my post. VS or VT. VS appears to have a brighter finish than the VT. I haven't seen any photos on the VT on a car but I'd like to. The +40 offset on the rear concerns me. Everyone else is +52 - +45. I absolutely can't stand any part of the wheel or tire outside the wheel well. +45 looks nice and flush. That's the most common offset so lots of photos floating around.
[QUOTE=RRC19966;1609048081]This one looks promising in dual gunmetal. The face looks almost like brushed silver or light gray with a dark gunmetal background.
Never had so much trouble picking wheels. I've looked at hundreds of photos of blue corvettes with various wheels and they all look good. Even the black factory wheels that are on it now look good once I removed them, detailed them and did a ceramic job on them. I'd consider just keeping them if Chevy had gotten the offset right. Flow forged vs forged is not a factor for the way I drive.

Ahh Ok. Figured it was because you were solely looking at mono blocks. If that is the case. You may want to open up the search to some really cool 2 piece wheels. You can really make a statement with them and show off the design and color you choose much better IMO. Just pick the same wheels and look at them in 2 piece. You can make the lip a different color with cool hardware etc to make them pop more.
Yep. Brushed silver /clear, chrome lips, black hardware. I am lowered 1.5" all around.
19X9 +35 (I would NOT go with anything more poke about as far out as I would ever want to push it)
20X11 +45 (This could take a slight more poke but looks good)
For comparison the options you posted the the 19X9+35 will poke 5mm more then the 19x8.5+34
and a 20X11+40 will poke 5mm more then 20X11+45
if you want it as FLUSH as possible 19X9+35 and a 20X11+40 will get you there. BUT pushing it on outside lips the other is safer ha
Those carbon wheels are awesome. Would look insane with a brushed silver of light gray finish. I went with the VS Forged VF02's. I saw a riptide blue with the same wheel finish out on the road. Just bright enough but not chrome. Really need to have a few sets with tires in different styles and finishes depending on my mood that day.
