What wheels are these?

I really like the style of these wheels and wanted to know what they were. They look like Boyd hotrods in a way. What do you guys think?

I'm torn between the magneatos and the hotrods. I was thinking about Z06's but the adapter thing is holding me back. The more I look at these two wheels the harder it is to decide. Damn it. I'm thinking 17's (cost) but the 18's would look good as well. What you guys think?

Those are 17's pictured above.

Now I'm jealous!!!!! . I'm leaning more towards the 18's but tires are pretty expensive. If I can find a good tire that performs and doesn't wear to fast I'm definitely going 18.

Kammi, what size did you get?

I think I'm going to go 17x8 in front and 17x10 in the rear. My car has the prokit on it so 17's shouldn't look bad, and the 91-92 gfx should help that much more. I hope!
