go 18" all the way around on those wheels or i think they will look dumb.

if you want 17s, the zr1 style will look way better in that size

its really preference man. both would look great. I currently have ruffs(which im selling) which look great, but i want to switch over to the machine face to try something new for awhile. I think theyll look great too. Either way you cant go wrong man, espeically on a silver car.

Here's a list of finish and sizing options. I'd vote for the Black with the stainless lip. we will probably be out of stock within 2 weeks on that wheel.

C6 Z06 Deep Dish with SSL
Black / Gunmetal / Chrome (no SSL)
17x9.5
18x10.5
18x8.5
19x10

C6 Z06
Chrome / Black / Silver / Machined Balck
17x9.5
18x10.5
18x9.5
19x10

thanks for all the input guys I made up my mind im gonna go with the staggered black 17/18 package i compared the 2 side by side on camaros one was white with the black rims and the other was a blue with the c6's and i believe the z06's look better on our cars, and judging by the poll id say most of u feel the same, the poll is still gonna stay open till the 30th just to see how many people vote for the black and how many dont... i will post pix up in about 2 weeks after everything is on the car

IMHO i'll say go with the machined z06. But i'll say try to get 18" by 10.5's on the back. That would make your car look way better than 17's all around. If not just try to get 10.5"s on the back. Hope i've helped. Good luck...
