Im upgrading to C6 Corvette brakes and the 15" wheels will have to go. :rolleyes:
This is a budget, driver type of deal so unfortunately you only get two choices!! Ha Ha! I will most likely order these Sunday or Monday so get your votes in!

Here's the car.

We have a straight five spoke deep dish. gun metal centers with a machined lip or a 10 spoke design. gun metal centers with a stainless steel lip.
The wheels will be an 18x8.5 up front and a 19x10 in the rear.

I voted 5 spoke. The ten spoke is overplayed in my opinion.
Keep us posted.:thumbsup:

Yeah it was originally between a solid chrome c6 deep dish and a solid chrome c5 deepdish but everyone kept saying chrome was too played out! I really want a mesh wheel with a lip but it's out of the budget as I already have tires for the 18x8.5 and 19x10's

The poll is tied?!?!? :faint:
I guess I'll just have to run the 5 spoke on the drivers side and the 10 spoke on the passengers! I might go all chrome but the consensus still seems to be gun metal...

I agree with Tone. The 5 spokes are the way to go. Right now, the 6 spoke is winning, but you will not go wrong with the 5 spoke bro. Trust us!! :yes: :yes:

i think with the car being a dark blue color and have alot of shinny trim they should be all chrome. and yes i prefer the 5 spokes

I'm a fan of the more complex wheel look with 10 spokes on newer style wheels unless you're going for more of a vintage look like with a Torque Thrust 205 or Cragar SS... then I'm old-school all the way! :yes:
