Default Electron Blue Z06 rims and tires.. lets get some pics boys!

Hello all this is one of my first posts on this site, a week ago i picked up a totally mint Electron blue 2002 Z06 with 14k miles on it and i love it its absolutely flawless inside and out (and got it for a good price to boot!) first thing thats gonna be changed is the stock shifter and then will be rims and tires (it literally still has the factory tires on it) so i need adviec and pictures on rims for the car. i had C6Z06 rims on my Fbody and they looked amazing but i dont think the rounder sides on this car will look right with thos rims. also for tires ive been looking into Nitto Invos they seem to have great traction, handling and ride comfort, this car will not be track raced but at the same time of course i want tires that hook good but... most importantly to me is the ride and noise.. any pictures and advice will be awesome guys... i know you will come thru for me

Black CCW Classics. "Big Street" sizes. They're the cat's meow. The bee's knees. The Emperor's new clothes.

These look awesome but I think I would go nuts trying to keep them clean.
