anyone have pics of chrome corvette rims on a red T/A?

im not sure if i want the Y2K 5 spoke rims, or the Z06 rims. either way im probably getting 18 x 9.5s and chrome, but ive never seen either of them on a red bird. i think the 5 spoke ones may work i like how thin the "arms" are you can see a lot of the brakes, which will be nice when i ever finish my c5 brake upgrade sitting on the shelf. there were these other cool rims i had a pic of a car on my desktop with them but they must be one of a kind

Friend's car. I have a pic of 17" Y2K wheels on a green camaro. They'd both look good. So no matter what it's gonna look sharp. Trust me on that one.

Wow, I had no reason to even post my pic, because it's the same car. Haha. Except I have the luxury of living 5 minutes from him. I love to go for rides in the heads/cam T/A.

I have the Y2K chromes on my silver Z and love them. They REALLY show a lot of the brakes and rotors.

damn no one has the Y2Ks on a red car? i was actually leaning more towards them cuz they show more brake and would probably be lighter then the 10 spokes

The Z06 wheels show plenty of brakes. Are you still running stock brakes? I wouldnt want to go showing those off anyway.

What's wrong with ZR1 rims?

Personally, I haven't seen too many TA's that I like with C5's or Z06s. I think the only good one I saw was Zach's

i dont like ZR1s aside from not hat appealing to me it seems like thats one of the most common replacement rims people get no offense to those that have them. i really like the Y2Ks ive seen on cars i just wanted to see them on something like mine before buying them
