Any pics of C5 thick spokes on a Silver Z

I'm debating getting a set of the 97-99 thick spoke silver C5 wheels, 17x8.5 front 18x9.5 rear but I want to see how they will look first. couldn't find any pics. Anyone have any pics of some on a silver 4th gen Camaro? Thanks

I've seen that set up done on a 1999 Pewter Z28. I personally think that the Z06 rims set up it a little bit meaner looking. I'm planning on putting Z06 Chrome rims on my camaro just because the C5 rims are too "every day looking". The Z06 rims are really unique looking I think. Just my 2 cents. Good luck with whatever you decide!

it all matters on the tire size. I have C5 running low pro's and personaly i think it looks tight. If you want more pictures it will have to wait till tuesday.

I like the C5 skinny spokes better then Z06 or the wide spokes. That is what I wanted but it was too expensive

Thanks for the pics and suggestions. I would love C5 skinny 5 spokes or Z06's but I'm not looking to spend $1k or more on them. I was intersted in the thick spokes because I wanted something in a 17 front 18 rear and didn't want to spend a fortune. I like the look of them on a C5, just havn't seen many on a 4th gen, if anyone else has pics of em on a silver Z please post them

Have you sold your C5 rims yet? I saw you had/have them for sale over at the Vette Forum.

I have the thick spoke '99 C5 wheels on my Formula and I think They look like sh*t. I only paid $290 shipped for them on the corvette forum(!). My car had no wheels at the time and I needed something cheap.
Where else can you get 18x9.5"/17x8.5"s at that price?

I think they look much better on Camaros.
