SS LS1...............
That car is f-in sweet. Damit that looks good. Those wheels are $ though.
As much as i like wheels like that, i have a really hard time justifying $ for them Vs. go fast parts and less expensive wheels.

I have been leaning towards either Chrome Zr1's with 17x11's on back, or chrome IROCs . maybe even some C5 Z06's. I dont think i want to do the black wheel anymore after seeing some other cars in SOM with black...i just dont think they go right.... Red and Hugger orange look sweet with black...but not SOM in my opinion now.

ZR1's are pretty played out, Z06's are getting there but I still think are the best budget choice out there...

Chrome IROCs look like @ss... Your car looks clean and modern and chrome IROCs would kill it.

I still think something with a polished lip and painted charcoal grey spokes would be a killer combo on your car

That white IROC is hot. HartAttack's 3rd Gen is a badass too. This wheel is a Bonspeed wheel

I went to the Bonspeed webpage but couldn't find prices for it.

o my god these cars are so HOT!!!!
why did i sell my iroc!!!!!
i miss my car
it didnt look nething like these, but still.

the rims on the white car would definitely make ur car look bad ***. also the sideskirts u have on the car, or the body kit, makes the car look wavy at the bottom, u should think about removing it, but thats just my opinion.

im setting the first pic of the white one as my background

First off, beautiful ride man. For rims, maybe some C6 rims. I don't know if anyone has them on a 3rd gen, I think it'd look real tough.

i know i need a sig update, i'm just lazy...lol i usually choose no sig, but forgot that time. the only pics i have with the old c5's are when the car was white. Since its been SOM, all its had on it were the 10 spokes. How is the makeover coming?

I think TT IIs look good on third gens but then you are gonna hear about being played out. The C6 Z06 kinda reminds me of a modern style IROC wheel. Whatever you do lower it and make sure you got about 295-315 out back...
