Those wheels are super sharp and I love the white-on-white. My only negative comment is in some of the shots the wheels look a bit cartoonish only because I think they look a bit too big.
Of course, that is just an opinion...

Of course they are too big. The car was engineered to run 19/20 with vehicle specific tires that are arguably the best extreme performance tires on the planet and they have been replaced with generic performance tires in sizes mismatched to the suspension calibration.
It may look good but they just made the car slower in both straight line and track use (less grip and more unsprung weight). All show, no go as the saying goes.
Take those exact wheels in the proper 19/20 size and reuse the stock Z51 tires and all my previous comments are invalid. You get all show AND all go.

I WISH the Z51 Mich came as OEM like above. Unfortunately, they are not. Maybe the Z06 will have these width tires but not happening on stock tires/rims so while it looks great you will lose the handling aspects of the car.... which is why I went with the Z51 option anyway....

Well i hate to comment on post like this as I fear to get into long thread about non fact's but i have Facts take them as you like : this set up in 21x12.5 with 375/30/21 this set up comes in at 58 lbs tpms and air up and your oem 20x10 and Michelin with no tpms and aired out 59.8 lbs . So in un sprung weight I'm lighter. Now I'm also about 40mm more of contact patch who doesn't want more grip? If you like Michelin more than pirelli that's personal choice but nothing said above is factual . Also oem tire is 285/30/20 OD ( overall diameter)= 26.7 and this 375/20/21 od is 26.9 so were also on par with OD .
Thanks anyone else have questions were here to help .

Black inners are the only thing missing, but 3 months of braking will handle that lol

Nice wheel design (I'd prefer them in silver)
19/20 inch diameter would look better, IMO.

Car needs to be lowered. Wheels will look perfect.
