Default How do you guys decide?

Its wheel order time, and I am 100% undecided between what wheel I want to go with for my C6. I guess since I like them all, any of the following will be great, but I thought by now I would/could have come up with a firm decision. I value your guys input, and would like to hear any comments or thoughts that you guys have. FYI, I am going with the polished wheel, chrome is oo "blingy" for a silver car IMO.

I will do stock sizes, 18x8.5 and 19x10, with 245/40/18 and 295/35/19 BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 2s.

Here is my car:



Here are my wheel choices:
A) CCW 505a



B) CCW SP500



C) CCW T10 (no pics on a car yet)

i personally like the T10s. since no one really has them and quite a few people have the other two wheels. even tho the other two are badass wheels! good luck with your decision!

If you want to be different, the T10s don't look bad at all. Otherwise, the SP500s will be the cleanest.

SP500s are the nicest looking

Stock wheels are good.

On that note, try to match them to the car. Curvy wheels for curvy cars, straighter wheels for straighter cars. Not everyone does this but it makes a big difference in the end result

Pick wheels that match the lines of your car. SP500s and 505As are too curvy for the more sharp/boxed lines of the C6 IMO. They both look great on the more curvy C5s but for the C6 something like the T10s, something like iForged Aeros or Classics, or some wheels from DPE like Nine Ball has on his C6 would be the better choice IMO.

Wow I think you either read my mind or we just had the same thought at the same time. Check the post above.
