AT 0:46 IS THE BEST VIEW.
I came across this video, I like these wheels for my 85. Those can't be Irocs, the spokes go a little too deep/angled. I have looked and looked for some 5 spoke wheels, i considered the c6 wheels but they run too big for my taste, Im not a big wheel kind of guy. Im thinking 18s in the back and 17s front. OR 18 all around or 17s. Nothing smaller or bigger. THANKS EVERYONE.

Center caps look odd, never seen spikes on anything aftermarket, They could be custom by the strange way the spokes curve thickly back into the rear of the rim. Have you tried contacting the guy through his YT profile?

What do you think of the TSW Vortex's? - http://www.tsw.com/alloy_wheels_Vortex.php

Those look good, have you bought these wheels before? They look kinda pricey. I tried contacting the guy but no response, he doesnt log into YT for months. I'm considering the C6 zo6 replicas, 17 in front 18s on the back. What do you think? or the c6 vette replicas, same 17 and 18s.

Aftermarket rims are very much a personal opinion matter. I'm very selective about what I'd put on any particular vehicle and don't like 80% of the choices people make in choosing wheels. Either they are ugly or just don't match the car. I don't even like the rims on my present car that were put on by the PO but have never bothered changing them.
I don't like studs whether fake or real (this is why I don't like my rims) and I think chrome should be reserved for vehicles that have other chrome accents.

Those TSW's will run you around a grand for silvers and $1600 for chrome, without rubber.
I'd put any of the following on a C4 (from vendors only, there's a stack more available) -

I know what you mean...I don't even like 80% of the OE wheels!!

Yup, though manufacturers seem to be slowly learning that people like their wheels to look nice if they are gonna spend tens of thousands on a new car, so they are slowly improving in style.

I agree about wheels being a personal taste thing. I think that every car made looks good with good ol '5 spoke wheels. Like Irocs. Im also considering irocs for my 85 corvette... BUT most likely i will get me some c6 replica wheels.. ONLY ONE QUESTION GUYS, So i did a bit of research and i found out that the wheel bolt pattern for a c4 is different from that of a c5 or c6. We all know that the wheels from a c6 will still fit a c4, despite the difference. So what happens if i buy a set of c6 wheels and put them on my c4? Does Anything break, bend, or get damaged later on?

Those are old KMC wheels, maybe call stealth?
Ha, just did a search and was right. Don't think the make any more.
