I like it!!! They would look great on my Black 2000 SS. Can you share the tire sizes? Thanks. Mike

Front tires are 265/40/17 and rears are 295/35/18. Same size as the stockers.

Looks ok but a set of forged wheels like CCW or Forgelines would fit that car much better. To each his own I just think a Z06 deserves better! Lol

Is there a reason you would go with these over OEM Z06 wheels...? I agree with whiteheartbeat that this car deserves a better set of wheels. Just because you can't afford a set of quality wheels doesn't mean you should just put a cheap set on and call it good. Nice car otherwise.

Not everyone can go and drop thousands on new wheels.

I think they look great! I like the chrome on black. I like the blue calipers also, its different then all the red ones.

I agree 100% I love the c5 dd and have them in polished aluminum on my t/a and love them. Also was not interested in dropping $2000 on rims.
I think they fit your vette very nice dude. Looks very sharp and clean !

Car and wheels look good. I've always thought c5's need 18's front and rear though.

Agreed. They do look good but 18x9.5s up front would look even better.

The suspension on these cars is setup for a 17/18 combo though, so you have that going for you, should feel and act like stock

Nice car and wheel choice but I agree 18's all around would look better
