Default looking for opinions on wheels

heres my baby



and ive got a couple thoughts on what i wanna do wheel wise. im either gonna paint the c5s on it black or black with a red pinstripe around the edge

or im going to put c5 deep dishes on it, in chrome, black with a chrome lip, black with a body color lip, body colored center w/black lip, or body colored center, chrome lip. if i go all chrome im going to get the riveted ones, any other color and i wont





just looking for opinions, i really wanna do something different with my wheels
thanks, mark

Since you have black GS stripes, the black C5 DD would flow well... but the chrome wouldn't look bad either. I would NOT paint the center of any wheels red though, 95% chance it will look tacky.

Edit: I'm not a big fan of the y2k wheels, def go with the C5 DD.

nah i decided to def. not do that haha, especially with red calipers, it would look pretty bad, im probably just going to put chrome ones on it since i havent decided what color to paint the car yet, possibly black centers. im looking at either painting it a super dark purple or a steel blue

ohh, you never said you were going to get a paint job. Why don't you wait until you paint it and then decide on rims to compliment the new color?

thats what i was wanting to do, but i need new tires pretty bad and the wheels i have now are actual vette wheels and dont really fit right or take the tire sizes i want, so i figure if im gonna spend a bunch of money on tires, it aughta be on wheels that i plan on keeping. chrome is probably the best choice though, i do all my own body and paint work so if i want them a color bad enough i can do it myself
