I think the C6s look better. But I guess I'm a little bias

c5 z06's. I rarely see an f-body that looks good with the standard c6's.

Yea there is a reason, besides the TT2s and Zr1s they were among the cheapest wheels you could buy for an f-body. I dont like the C5 wheels a all.
C6 wheels are cheap also, but I think they look much cleaner with the simple flat five spoke and no lip.

C6 wheels are way to plain.

Go ZO6.
