I would run the Z06 wheels or the TTII's. I just put AFS Z06's on my Camaro and they look great. 17x9.5. What size do you plan on running 17's or18's?

I actually won them on ebay. I'm really happy though with them. They seem to be one of the best for the $$$. They were 500 shipped. The 18's are going to be more expensive. Also, I'd go with the polished instead of the chrome. I think they look a lot better.

I would get chrome 18in Z06's, thats what i got. I have AFS wheels and they are good quality. I would get chrome though. Polished takes way to much work to keep clean.

Chrome will peel eventully, especially if you curb a wheel. Polished is superior, you're supposed to like to take time to clean the car. Nothing feels better then seeing it shine when its dark out Personally I would keep the ZR1s on there too.

Chrome doesn't peel if you keep them clean. If you curb a rim just brush paint some clear over the area. Aluminum rims don't peel as bad as steel rims because steel usually rust from the inside out. I clean my rims and they will stay clean way longer than polished too. Also if you have chrome and it peels then just remove all the chrome and polish them.
