I'm thinking some motorsport (black painted with machined face) C6's would look very nice on the car you described.

Just about every Camaro I've seen with C6 wheels has had horrible wheel fitment. The wheels were hiding up in the fenderwell.

black would look cool, but i have chrome rims on my truck that is the same color and chrome really sets the color of.. i dont know what it is but it really looks sharp. i really like the way the chrome zr1's look but everyone has them, i kinda want a different look. i've seen some pics of a white ss with the c6 rims 18 in front 19 in rear and they look sharp in my opinion

those are a pretty sweet lookin rim, but i kinda wanna go with all chrome
where would be the best place to look for Zr1's and C6's i'd really like to have 18's so i think its gonna come down to price..because i can't decide which ones i like better
