05 Z06 Wheels?

Hey guys, I am ready to buy new wheels.. I want the Z06 wheels they have now but I am starting to think I should wait and get the NEW Z06 wheels when they are released. I saw a pic and they are sweet as hell.. Just wondering if anyone knows a place already selling them or how long it will be before we can get our hands on them.. I know they already offer the C6 wheels on ebay but no sign of the C6 Z06 wheels yet.. thanks

sorry I don't know anything about when they will be out but there are a few photo shops in that board with them (c6 Z06s) on thirdgens.

I think the 04 Zo6 rims would look better on a thirdgen.

Well I guess no matter what I do they are always going to release new wheels and chances are no matter what I buy I will end up wanting something else eventually.. I think for the money I will just stick with the C5 Z06 wheels and maybe after the new ones get cheaper I will upgrade.. who knows.. Thanks guys

I think you would have your hands full fitting a 19x12 out back...it would look cool though.

I was talking about aftermarket.. they make 17" Z06 wheels (C5).. and since they are already selling C6 wheels I figured the C6 Z06 wheels couldnt be too far away
