i like the black ones. although im swapping mine out for silver ZR1's. I think black Zo6's or ZR1's would look awesome on your car. I would do the 17x11 ZR1's in the back and put 315's on there.

I like the look of black wheels on your car, but not C5 Z06's. Those wheels just don't look right on 'Birds, IMO.

Go with the black C6's with the polished lip. Those will look awesome on your car. Deanasdork has them on his red T/A, they look killer.
