What kind of rims are these?

I bought this car at the begining of summer and i asked the guy what kind of rims they are all he could answer is that they are c5 rims. idk if this is correct, i think they might be repro's. but anyway i forced into a side barrier on the toll road by a semi truck blindly merging. i smacked the wall and put an enourmous gouge in the chrome lip of my front rim and scratched the entire chrome lip on the rear rim, insurance covers it but im going to need help finding out what they are. here are some picks of the good side and the bad side.

Right click the image, go to properties and copy the "Address/URL" section. Then click the "Insert Image" icon above and paste the address. That's it

You had "http://htpp//" in the beginning of the address..... you just need http:/

I deleted the [img] tags, so it shows up as a link.

Maybe flikr does not allow hot linking.

Appears to be the OE Wheels C5 (2000 or 2001/02) replica (plus fake bolt heads):

Re: What kind of rims are these?

It took some doing, but I figured out how to post the images in this thread:



I'm not sure if Flickr will allow the hotline, but the URL everyone else was trying to post was the URL to the page on Flickr that has the image on it, not the URL of the image itself. I found it by viewing the HTML source of the page and scouring through it manually; they're using Flash to prevent the usual right-click approach described in post #3.
