You can find a few but usually people don't like the looks of them. I got a whole set of them that I've been trying to sell since last year and I still got them! And I was selling for cheap too.

I'll try to dig up some pics of mine that I had (briefly) on my old 2002 Z28. They don't look horrible, and can be had cheaply. They are better than stock, but not as good as a nice aftermarket wheel IMO. These are 17x9 and 18x10, 275/40/17 and 275/35/18s. They were new-car take-offs, I had like $800 in all four wheels and tires. Might be cool to paint the spokes black or something.

The ones I had were silver like above^^^but I had them sandblasted because I planned on powdercoating them. I ended up buying TT2's and just painted the C5 wheels a gunmetal color to protect from rust. They have sat in the garage since. I think I was asking like $200+shipping.

Here is a shitty shop of a set I used to abuse on my 00. Once the tires were gone I gave them back to my buddy. They were only installed to do donuts. He was a bitch and didn't want to tear his car up, so I gladly took the role. HAHA

i think they look good... that silver car needed some different rears 275/35 on a 18x10?? imo the silver on sliver looks good. and the chrome on the yellow vette looks good too.
