Well, just used the special that tomzwheelz was having and ordered 2 18x10.5 C5 Z06 wheels for the back cause i already have 9.5 all around. Just anxious too see what these babys look like, cause i dont see too many C5 Z06s in 10.5" with 315s on the back. Chrome on a silver car would be sweet and chrome on a silver vert would be bitchin, but would ever.
