I like the CCW SP500s. They are just an awesome looking wheel.

I like the look of the painted Z06s over the chromies. There are plenty of nice aftermarket wheels out there but I think the Zs hold their own pretty well. The black chrome lugs on Quicksilver's look sharp.

I think the stock ZO6 wheels are about the nicest looking wheels available anywhere. Most of the aftermarket wheels people put on the ZO6 seem to me to be inferior in looks and oftentimes in quality also. The ZO6 wheels in chrome look fantastic on fourth generation Camaros but the chrome is just too much bling on a ZO6. I do think they should have been painted a darker grey color rather than the argent color and they do look better with chrome and even lots better with black chrome lugs.

I love the Z06 wheels in chrome. Mostly on blue and black.
Where can I get a set of those?

I agree the stock Z wheels are gorgeous. Heck, I even had a set of black one's on my LT-4.
That said, I have BBS on my Z06 and they really attract comments (mostly positive).

I personally think the C5 Z06 wheels are very good and aggressive looking for just a stock OEM wheel, regardless of car manufacturer. Add to the fact the Z06 wheels are light and strong, and that's the icing on the cake. Of course, there are some aftermarket wheel designs that I think are just awesome looking (ie. CCW's, HRE's, Kinesis, etc) and make the Z06 look even hotter and more exotic like this one below...

Factory Z06 are the best quality and make the car look like a serious performance car.
Black wheels just lose all details, and chrome wheels take away from the performance look.
I don't think I will ever remove the factory wheels for aftermarket wheels.
