Re: Help me decide on my wheels

I like the looks of the first rim, but not the sizes...I prefer a bigger rim on the rear, or at least the same size....17x5 fronts and 17x10 rear....but either way I like the first rims the best....votdd

Re: Help me decide on my wheels

CCW Classics have always been hands down my favorite wheel for camaros and corvettes.
I had 2 sets of these for my 99 C-5 Corvette, and for my 03 Z06.

Re: Help me decide on my wheels

Those Welds are pretty badass. I've always loved the look of drag style wheels on an f body. The CCWs would cost you an arm and a leg.

I vote #2

Re: Help me decide on my wheels

I like option 1, but the front and back wheel need to be the same diameter IMHO

So option 3 is my second

The reason for the bigger front wheel, is becuase they are for a corvette. Corvettes cant fit a small wheel up front so 17s is what goes up front.
