Default c6 on trans am picture request

I am thinking of buying the black c6 5 spoke wheels with the chrome lip. I wanted to see some pictures of some on a trans am if anyone has any. please help me out if you can

17's preferred, so i don't have to buy new tires.

This is what i was thinking of getting... tell me what you think. These are going on my 99 TA RED

Yeah I thought about the 18's but just don't want to burn it up and buy all brand new tires for them. plus i don't think it will that bad once its lowered a tad. but i know the 18's would look the best.

If I ever got rid of my salad shooters, I would get some C6s. I love the look of those. Bump for pics. Will 18"s bolt right up without spacers and if so what kind of offset should I look for so they will bolt up?

18" wheels would look the best, but they probably weigh 33lbs or something crazy a piece, and will cause you to drop .2 -.3 in the quarter mile..

Ordered my C6 chrome 18's last week. I've never liked other wheels and these are the first that I've liked other than the stock one, believe it or not. They almost look like they would have been standard F-body wheels if they were still making them in '06 and '07.

I completely disagree. I don't think they look right on F-bod's IMO. I think the C5 look much better.
