Cool

Interesting that nobody has mentioned ZR1's yet in the "everybody-and-their-brother-has-them"-category.

Since I'm just a simple old guy myself and don't want/need anything fancy and the latest styles, to me chrome ZR1's are the way to go.

My bad. Too late, I guess...

Definetely can't argue about the originality, but I'm sure many of us go with the ones they think look good and are not necessarily looking for originality.

Re: anyone got anything other then vette rims?

Joe, everyone's got their favorite wheels...personally, I'm a 5-spoke kinda guy. Some like chrome, some polished, some back...5 spoke, 6 spoke, 10 spoke...crap that could go on forever with everyone's replies. Hell, I know people that love the salad shooters....go figure.

I suggest you try the "Reader's Rides" link in this message board...it's a link to CarDomain. You can search all the 4th gen cars to see what their wheels look like on their cars and then narrow your search. Wheels are like your personality dude, do some research and see what you like.

Yeah I know rims opinions vary from person to person. I wasn't dowing on anyones rims, just all i see posted in the forum is about vette rims. I know other people have rims other then these but I don't know what they are called or what they look like. Just trying to get some people to step up and show off something else besides the tried and true c5 rims.
