Can anyone give me some guidance in this regard?

Took a few minutes to search but maybe you've seen this thread already. Although he has the machined version, you get the general idea. Perhaps he can point you in the right direction.

Trust me a car with 10" and 11" wide wheels with 275s (front) and 315 (rear) series tires looks and performs better.

Nothing wrong with staying with stock sized wheels and tires. But most guys don't want to upgrade their wheels to stock sizes.
Amen. If you want ZL1 "replica" wheels, why get them in a smaller size?

Um... Maybe so you can use your existing tires?

Because I want the LOOKS. If I wanted the price of the tires, why would I go buy cheap replicas?!

Not to mention the fact that I don't want staggered wheels. I'd like to rotate my tires.

I would get the ones that are made by YSM. They have them in eBay, they are the matte finish... They are all made in China, but the "glossy" aren't made by YSM. They are really really cheap quality. Marcellino is made by YSM and the quality is much better. They say ZL1 on them. I almost pulled the trigger on these myself. You can talk them down to 600+shipping. If it wasn't for the recent thread about the newest ZL1 wheels made polished, I would have bought these myself.

I understand those were real, I was just trying to help you find some wheels

I bought a set of these with the machined face look. So far I'm pretty happy with the way they turned out. Front wheels are 8.5 and rears are 9.5 in. wide. They weigh in almost exactly the same as the stock RS wheels.

I'll be getting these this spring. A buddy of mine has had them for almost a year and they look great.

They look realy nice!
Would you be willing to take some side shots of your car? I would like to see how they look profile wise.
