i've been thinking of getting some 18" C5 or C6 wheels too. anyone know what the weight is on those wheels? as compared to stock? or other wheels of comparable price? maybe this would help you make your decision? but as for my personal opinion, C5 wheels look like they were MADE for camaros, C6s for the T/As!
