Default OE C5 rims compared to GM C5 rims

How much is the difference between OE C5 rims compared to oem C5 rims. My car has C5 oem rims right now , and I want to replace the 18s on the rear with some 17s.

IMO the OEW replicas outshine the factory C5's by far. I personally think the GM C5's are ugly. The OEW version sit back deeper and the 5 spoke has a slight curve. Check my pictures I just posted in this section. I just put 18x10.5 DD C5's in the rear and 17x9.5 up front.

figured there would be a slight difference , as long as they don't really look night and day different I am fine with that.
