Default Opinions needed on c6 rims

Well after trying to find chrome firehawk rims, I decided to give up. I would like something very similar. These 19's got to go.
Would you go with gran sport replicas 17 front 18 rear
Or C6 chrome.

chrome firehawks look like the chrome c5 (y2k) wheels to me... the skinny ones

what are you getting wheels for?

well since going back to stock is probably not going to happen, id like to get as close to stock as possible, for ride quality and so people stop asking do I still have the original wheels. To me the C5's are too skinny. I was thinking the gran sport rims looked fairly close.

C6 wheels dont look that great,if your going to go with oewheels i would go polished c5dd 10.5 all around,looks great imo,look threw the c5dd thread, there is a redhawk in there that looks killer,or spend a lil more and go 17 weld rts,i have gotten to the point if ya dont get the rims you really want you will just be switching wheels untill ya do lol,and there are such good deals on used rims that i would just look real hard for something sweet,my buddy nnot to long ago got a set of fm10s for under 2gs rims only

I agree with someone saying the y2k wheels look more like the Firehawk wheels. I just put a set on my 95 Formula (WS6 clone) and everyone said the value of my car doubled. No pics since the clear is peeling worse than a week old sunburn.
I see that a few of you are nearby. I'm in Milledgeville.
