Question Opinions on wheels for a 35thSS

I have a 35th SS with the appearance pkg and i'm trying to decide whether or not to keep the rims stock. Trying to get some opinions.

Don't mind the stock rims, they're just starting to seem a little plain. Thinking about chrome TTM's or C6's. Possibly the black TTM's too. If you have an opinion or a different suggestion please feel free to chime in.

If you have a 35th and have aftermarket rims tell us what they are and give us a few pictures.

Thanks guys.

know anyone who might be able to photoshop some rims onto your car for us? maybe the black and chrome TTMs, TTIIs, and C6s. I could email you some pics of my car, but the ones i have right now are too large to post.

How about looking into the machined face Z06's. I think they would look good. Here is are a couple of links to show you what they look like.

I have a 35th SS LE Vert and put the TTM's in chrome on my a couple weeks ago. 17x9 in front and 17x10.5 in back. They look awesome. While the black LE wheels go well with the cars color scheme, there has always been something too plain about them that just doesn't stand out for me.

I will wash the car this week(it got rained on last night) and have the wife take some pictures(or show me how to use the digital camera).
