You think those are played out? Those ZR1's and TT2's are on a **** ton of F-Body's as well.

Those are the chrome DD C5's that OE Wheels (a sponsor here) sells. They are popular and nice looking too. I wnt with the DD Zr1 cause i like the old school look and wanted all 17 inch wheels with 11" wide out back. IIRC the DD C5 is 18x10.5 Rear, 17x9.5 front. Some guys run all 18's. Check out this thread:

TONS of examples in there.

I'd go 17x9.5 up front with a 275/40/17 tire and a 17x11 with a 315/35/17 tire in back. Looks sick, looks factory-and doesn't look out of place.

The C5 and C6 vette wheels are sharp looking rims on their own, but IMO they look very out of place on the Fbody's. They're often times too complicated, too flashy, and just plain too big with the smaller Fbody brake setups. They don't look like they belong there at all...

I'd never put anything bigger than a 17 on my car...MAYBE 18's on the back, 17's on the front...but I love the look of some polished/chrome 17's on ANY color of car...

There's a reason so many people to TT's and C4 ZR1 rims-cuz they look awesome! they look like they're supposed to be there, and they're easy to come by. If you wanna be a trendsetter/something different theres a lot else out there, otherwise look around ebay/craigslist/the sales dection on LS1tech and I'm sure you'll be overwhelmed with choices!

good luck hunting

If you are wanting a nice set of wheels, do 17s/18s. But if you are wanting "rims" then you need to look into 22's with a lift kit.

Me personally it's one or the other, no mis-matchin..the Wheel Wells aren't different sizes so it doesn't look right.

I said C5 and C6 rims DICK! I've got C4's! Lol, i'm just messin with ya man...

Like 97camaross said tho, they're just as much fbody wheels as they are vette wheels! In fact, I bet they where on more fbody's than vettes, seein as they where only on ZR1's and Grand Sport's(IIRC)...I bet there was a lot more SS's made with them...

So what now merv? lol
