I also vote for the white ZR1's. Something different and looks good on the car.

What color is the car?

Edit: I couldn't see the pictures at work.

Now that I'm at home... I don't like the back wheels for the white ones. They stick out too far. That's cool if you're going to race and need the extra tread, but if it's a street car, it looks stupid.

The white ZR1s look a lot better on a white car, but if those white rear ZR1s do stick out like they look like they do; then don't get the white ZR1s!

I've got both sets for my artic white 98 Z28, I like my silver 17 X 9.5 up front and 17 X 11 out back. They look more aggressive, while my white set 17 x 9 look good but not as aggessive looking.

Looks like the 17x11's may be the 36.5mm offset, rather than the preferred 50mm offset. That would account for them sticking outside the fenders (if they look the same in person as they do in the photos).

My 17 X 11's are 50mm offset, and look perfect to me. Tucked inside fenderwell nicely.

So are mine. That's why I suggested that the wheels he took pictures of may be the 36.5mm offset.
