I like the deep dish c5 style wheels on oewheels.com. That car would look good with black and chrome lip wheels to match the car. All chrome might not go with the car IMO.

Fikse makes good looking wheels. Not sure how they compare to the ccw's but worth looking at.

well it all comes down to money doesnt it? Winter driving plays a factor to if you do.
You can 4k for wheels nowadays.
I try to stay true to the c5 so it was hard to replace my Y2k's. Eventually i went with c6zo6 wheels repros. Close call were the c5ZO6. The repros in imho have come a long way and you can get a decent wheel that will last a long time without breaking the bank.

I have CCW's for my drag wheels but every day no way. PIA to clean up.
