Default wheels for my eb zo6

i have been playing with this idea for a while now.
c5dd 18x9.5/18x10.5 combo.
no rivets
either all gloss black or satin black spokes with gloss black lip with a eb blue pinstripe.
don't know if i want the pinstripe on the inner part of the lip or the outer edge.
some pics of the idea i want of the wheels

Those CCW's on the EBZ are wicked. I'd do them just like that but, they would look good with satin black centers too.

You could just order the wheels anyways, then when they arrive, apply the blue line with pinstripping tape in each location on two seperate wheels and see which you like better. This way you could just remove the pinstripping tape and have it painted on after you decide. If you need some more pics, I may be able to help for photo shop purposes. I have gloss black sp500's on my car. I could attempt load some pics this weekend?
