I have been looking at different magazines on wheels and having a hard time picturing wheels on Z06. Any one recommend wheels for a Z06? Can you post pics so I can see what the different ones look like on Z06's? Thanks:)

CCW's mentioned above are great and offer great value/service dept. For max blling you may want to look at Iforged (Their Aero model is a popular model for vette's, make sure to ask for the model with the 1" wider lip). Generally they are more expensive than CCW and require 6-7 weeks to fabricate. Road Racers like Fiske, however those are generally 1.5-2x the cost of CCW.

My set up is: CCW Corsairs (road race set, R compound tires, very light rims), Iforged Aero (street tires).

Michelin PS2's are prob the best. Kumhos also a popular lower priced option.

Does Michelin make Z06 tires? I thought they didn't

Goodyear is the only one that makes tires for Z06 19x12 wheels, I don't think he was implying that Michelin made Z06 tires. If I'm mistaken, then that is good news! I would love to see Michelin make 19x12 tires!
