Default 2002 Formula - need wheel advice

Well it's about time to replace the stock 16's on the Formula. I'm torn between C5's, C6's, and C6 Z06's. The car is navy blue and ive included a pic. I love all 3 but can't make up my mind. Also, will (4) 17x8.5 and/or (2) 17x9.5 and (2) 18x10.5 bolt right up to the car without any problems? Those are the combinations I'd be looking at with the corvette rims. I tried reading the wheel FAQ but the whole thing was a bit much.

Any help/advice for a noob?

I should also add that since taking that picture, I have replaced the rotors and painted my calipers red so with the 5-spoke rim it will look great!

I have a white Formula, and I have C6 18*9.5 running P285/35R18.
