Hey ZR0CWS6, We have those in black and chrome as well. We also carry them with just a machined lip versus the stainless lip... and we have them staggered.

For a black car i would personally go with either the black or Chrome. The gunmetal looks good on like a white car or something light. Just my .02

Not sure if we have plans to do the Deep Dish C5 in 18x9.5. let me look into it.

Regarding the C6 Z06 Deep Dish - we don't have it in the 17x10.5.

Looks like we have our work cut out for us and it is only our 4th day as a sponsor on LS1tech.

I wish you did have the C6 Z06 in a 17x10.5, Id be all over them. Thats the only reason I dont have a set.. I like 17s because of the tire choices..18s look better I think but..finding a good tire that I like..is a little harder..

If only the C5 Deep Dish Style Wheels would come 18X9.5 Front and 18X10.5 Rear. I would be all over them. I currently Have C5 Y2k's staggered look. So come on OE Wheels make it happen.

I just talked to our manufacturing director and they are considering opening up our sizing some. We'll see what happens over the next 12 months.

Thats great news! Sounds like an 18x9.5 front and a 17x10.5 or 11 rear would sell alot more sets
