Default Should I get these wheels?

Someone in my area may want to trade my 275/40-17 Z06 wheels which are black with chrome lip (pictures below). The other guy has 18" RPM Racing Rims which rear is 275/35-18 and front 245/40-18 also black with chrome lip (pictures below). Let me know if you think it would look good on my car. Thanks guys!

i'd stick with the motorsports. I mean, they're corvette rims man. most 5 spoke stuff looks sick on f-bodies.

the 2nd choice reminds me of ricer rims you can get at discount tire. just my opinion!

I'd do it. I just think 18's look so much better on our cars.


*edit* Looks like your friends rims stick out a little too much. What's the offset of those?

I noticed that too, I'm going to need to ask him. What is the correct offset anyways for our cars?

Yeah, thats what a friend of mine said. But I looked up the rims and they seem to be pricey. But thanks for your opinion.
