Default Wheels and Tires for 93 vert

Would love to get as many opinions as possible. I have a 93 yellow vert, that is in need of some new wheels/tires. My heart keeps leaning toward the Z06 with rivets and either the Proxies or Yokohama's. I love the really cool tread patterns on some of these tires. My car is only a weekend driver and gets very little mileage each year, back and forth to car shows basically.

Also, what sizes would you guys recommend, do I stay with the stock 255/45/17 (front) and 285/40/17 (rear) or is there something that would look better?

Thanks for helping a member out.

You can get 17x9.5" all around and reuse your tires if they're still in good shape. Another option is the 17/18 (17x9.5 and 18x10.5) combo like I have. 275/40/17s up front and 295/35/18s out back. By the way I'm using stock Z06 wheels. Here's a pic:

Great looking Vette. Does anyone else have pictures of a C4 with Z06 wheels on them? I would love to see them.
