Default rims/wheels etc

my brother and I are shopping around and going with these styles (I'm battling myself on 17 vs 18"), but we're looking at buying 2 sets same size.

silver z06

silver c6

hyper black

I'll prob go with the c6 hypers as he'll go with the z06 silvers.

opinions welcome.

So true. I went around in circles for a long time and the only wheels I was ever really happy with the look of was 96-00 WS6 wheels. Firehawk wheels are pretty cool though, both the LT1 and LS1 styles. Speedlines look good but they just don't look as mean as the 96-00 style.
