would this look good?

thinking of updating my wheels. i love my 16" chrome z28's but they aren't large enough.

what would look best?

17" chrome firehawks
17" 10-spoke SS wheels chrome
18" z06 chrome?

which one of these or do you have a better suggestion?

i would stick with what you've got, they have the box styling like the rest of the car. putting anything else on would look getto IMO.

that isn't an option because the baer brakes will not fit; this is also a matter of perfomance. not just looks.

i don't see how it could look ghetto as they aren't gold plated. but to each his own.

thanks for all the opinions guys. anyone else?

I say if you like the style you have why not get the SS 17s that come stock on the SS. I think the 96-99 SS's

well it's a good point because what do you think when you see any older car with square lines that have rounded wheels, i think ghetto. the car just looses its sense of style. know what i mean? just like i don't think thin spoke vette wheels look good on camaros and firebirds, they don't have the same stlye, camaros are muscle cars, corvettes are more all around sports cars, the styles don't mix.
