I think argent C5 deep dish wheels would look good. Or all black C6 Z06 with a white pinstripe around the lip. Or maybe chrome C6 Z06 deep dish...?

I think with these wheels in 17/18 combo makes the 17's look small. 18's all around or 17's all around look at home.

I liked my idea of the C6 Z06 all black w/ white pinstripe, or the chrome C6 Z06 deep dish for white. I think the all black with white stripe would look sick with a sunoco cowl with black stripes down the side and SS spoiler.

That's just my opinion.

I guess I should have asked, what's the budget on the wheels?

Around 500-550 but if I do the all black wheels white pinstripe sunoco hood with stripes down the side I basically have to do the Berger panel black... And I think it looks kind if weird on a white car

You wouldn't have to. Personally, I like the Berger on silver and white the most.

For $550 you'll probably need to get a painted wheel or the machined. What about 35th Ann. style 10 spokes? Either authentic or paint them too look like them...

Just another thought for ya'

The last 2 look sick.. So now I'm considering the white and black combo... Would machined face c5's and black Berger look bad?
