IMO... Bronze would look like complete ass on a Orange SS. Go with chrome or black.

Depends on what other mods you want to add...and the purpose, speed or looks. Just rims, I'd go with Diablo Wishbone Chrome and Sunburst Orange. 20".....18" if you lower it.

I think black with a chrome lip would be sexy. That's just my £.02 though.

I really like the look of the gun metal wheels. It's different. I also like the ones that are both metal & black.

I like the gunmetal wheels on the SS/SC. They look similar in finisht to the C5 Z06 wheels. I still would have preferred high-polished though. I like the look of them! I would take high-polished wheels over any other finish.
