Default Which wheels to buy? (pics)
Well I'm thinking of finally putting some wheels on my car and cant decide which to buy, all of these corvette wheels I've found for about $500 a set. I also am liking the black face wheel with a brushed lip, and also the Argent silver (flat grey) they use on some of the corvette wheels.

What do you think?

IMO, zr1s and c5z's are wayyy too played out, and youll never find them on my car. but in this case (oddly), the c5z's look really good on your car. go with black or gunmetal

The zr1s look better than any of those pictures that you photoshopped. Maybe they all look bad cause they look like 15s lol

The ZR1's look the best, but the last ones are nice as well. I think with a better photoshop of the wheels and a bigger picture. You would be able to get a better look of the other wheels on your car.
