What wheels for a show car?

Do NOT get ZR1s for a show car. Everyone and their brother has them and I get tired of looking at them (sorry people). They came on all 96-99 SS's, could get them on 2000-2002 SS's and they came on Corvette ZR1's, Grand Sports (although those look a lot different) and the 96 Collector's Edition. Plus they seemed to be the only aftermarket wheels to get for a F-Body for a while. WAY too common, especially for a show car.
Personally, I'd go with chrome Z06 wheels (note that these did not come stock on any car but the 2004 Commemerative Z06 - and I've never seen one) in a 18" or bigger size. I agree with the rotors though. You should definitely do that for a show car. Plus the Z06 wheels are cheap enough that you should be able to afford it. You can get the rotors from iRotors somewhere around $400 for the set I believe. Oh and paint your calipers (or polish them) while you're at it. That costs next to nothing and looks really good.
