Default Any Pictures of New Base Z06 Wheel?

I have an 09 Z06 on order with the base "sparkle silver" wheels, but haven't seen what they look like yet. Anyone have a picture? Thanks. -Paul

Can't find the base silver painted spider wheels, but here's a color comparison on the standard 10 spoke z06 wheels.....painted silver vs comp grey. And then the comp grey spider wheel on the bottom....I love these wheels.

I am totally torn between the Silver and Competition Gray. I'm getting ready to order a 2009 Z06 in Cyber Gray, 3LZ - Ebony Leather Wrapped.

I like the strictly business look of the Comp Gray, but that silver is nice too!

Any opinions?
