C6 ZO6 wheels on a cobalt? Can it happen?

Well guys my car is getting lowered at the midwest meet at CED in early April and I am going to pick out my wheels for the car sometime around the end of april. Does anyone know of any website or company that has or could make a set of C6 Z06 wheels for a cobalt. I know the stock Z06 wheels will not even come close to fitting due to their offset and width, I am just looking to see if anyone knows of a place that could make this happen. I think a lot of people would be intrested in this.

Damn, I figured it would cost a bit of money but I am not looking to spend 1500$ on just the rims. I could deal with 1000 but thats about all I would be willing to spend. I was thinking maybe there was a company that made replica wheels in different sizes for other cars. Oh well though it was a good idea

off set wouldnt be that big a deal if you used the front wheels off the vette.. bolt pattern is diff though.. i believe a vette is a 5x4.75 and the balt is 5x110

Yep that is correct. I think even the front wheels would be to wide though for the balt. Can anyone confirm this? I could most likely get the bolt pattern custom drilled.

I think American Racing has a rim that looks close to the same as a Z06. It won't be exactly the same of course.

I had planed on it but have decided against it. I have put too much money into it in the past 2 months to sell it and take a loss on the parts and time put into the car.
