Money is no object---WHAT IS THE BEST LOOKING WHEEL FOR A C5
I have ordered C5 flares and want to know what the best looking wheel is for the c5. I like the SP500's myself but is there something better?
What about some of these wheels out for the C6 with concave? Give me your opinion....and if possible back it up with pics

Something 19x10 and 20x13 forged concave style, with offsets that poke the wheels just about .25" past the fenders, with a slightly rolled (stretched) sidewall.
Of course ride height needs to be set right. The HRE's they advertise in the c6 section look real nice.

well i bought the best looking drag pack (Bogarts that are in the for sale section.)
Now I am looking for regular wheels. I wanted a c6 but the c7 is so beautiful I am going to have to wait hence needed something neat for my c5 in the meantime.

Best wheels HRE P40SC lineup. Incredible and lightweight. We haven't done any on C5s yet so no pictures.

I'm partial to Fikse FM5's. I know very few of you will agree though

I have CCW 505As and I'm very happy with their look and performance, however if I ever decided to spend one third of the car's value on new wheels, I would go with HRE!

IMHO CCWS are dated and over used to where they seem like stock wheels. iForged are getting there too! They are quality wheels however. Need to come with some new designs! Here are my Modular Concepts 04 19/20 combo that come in many finishes. Will not see every Tom, Dick, and Harry with them either because they are not cheap!
