C5 Zo6's look gross on 'Birds. I'd go with the C6 wheels if those are the only other choices, both the C6 Z's and standard C6 wheels will look good.

Wow, I think this is the first time I've seen them on a Bird! I really like these wheels, but I'm not sure. I like to see a bit more sidewall, and wow, do they make the stock brakes look tiny! What are those, 19's?

Yeah they are 19x10. I think that it will look a lot better once I lower the car alittle. It looks 100% better in person though, and I have been getting a lot of compliments and thumbs up everywhere I go. Regardless, I love them and thats all that matters to me.

They have them in chrome as well. I wanted a total black out... I bought mine on ebay and they are oem knock offs with the correct back spacing for an easy install.
