Everyone says I need new wheels,been rolling the chrome Z06's for over 8 years now.
Here is a pic of the car the way its been for a long time.
My son says it's time to drop the classy look and go a little more evil looking.
Been thinking of going with a black wheel, (flat or gloss?) but not sure what one.
Car is at the body shop now having my cme installed and valance molded.
Having the manta redone on the hood also.
Any thoughts on wheels would be great.

Man I think those wheels look perfect on that car. Are you lowered? Lowering a bit would change up the look also. I think people just get sick of seeing the same thing on their cars. I'm the same way. I'll change something and realize I liked it better the way I originally had it.
You could always get another set of wheels and keep the chrome Z06's to swap out every now and then to change up the look. But your car is beautiful just the way it looks now.

It's time for NEW wheels like you said, not just recolored wheels. I was rocking the same chrome Z06's that came on my car when I got it. I decided they were too plain for the color.

Agreed any ccw or fikse. Go big or go home. If not in the budget, I would personally wait. Why get another cheap rim or replica rim? Those look good till you can get the money to upgrade. Don't get another reasonably priced rim and feel the same way in a couple years, get what you really want.
Car looks bad *** BTW! As it sits....
