Looking for some input here. My '02 C5 Vert has ZO6 calipers and
Baer drilled/slotted rotors and C5 ZO6 Factory Reproduction wheels in the C5
base sizes -17x8.5 & 18x9.5 with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S ZP's.
I want to upgrade the tires to Michelin Super Sports so figure this is the time to also
upgrade the wheels.
My plan was for C5 ZO6 Factory Reproduction 18x9.5
& 19x11 wheels and 275/35-18 & 305/30-19 Michelin SS tires and to also
lower the car 1".
Ordered and paid for all the above and then sadly found
out that Factory Reproduction has just permanently discontinued their 19x11 C5
ZO6 chrome wheels.
Now, in order to keep the C5 ZO6 wheel look, I have to either jump up to 19/20" wheels or quickly grab a set of the C5 ZO6 "Motorsport" fake rivet look 18/19's which are also due to be discontinued shortly.
So, any thoughts on the pro's & cons of those two options would be very much appreciated.
