the gunmetal color does nice with the pewter
black also goes well.
I dont think chrome wheels look good though

Here is my car... Chrome C5 Z06. It'll be powdercoated to gunmetal grey or dark shadow grey color soon enough because the chrome is flaking like there is no tomorrow.

Blk c5 dd. I think the gunmetal c6 z06 would look good. That was my second choice.

You will probably have to do a BFH mod to your fender wells so the tires won't rub or get a hub centric spacer.

I'm lowered but my rears have 295s ATM.
