They are on the order guide as a accessory opt. I bet they will bring big $$$$.

Can someone do a photoshop with Black Z51 wheels on the Shark Gray Car.

Thanks

The standard Z51 Silver Painted Wheel looks good IMO.

The ZO6 GM had at Sebring in March was Shark Gray with the new diamond finish wheels, looked great. Those wheels were silver painted but had a bit of a shimmer to them, I think red calipers with those would look great.

I actually think this is the best looking wheel so far, and it's also what I have on my laguna blue z51

It's also probably the reason why I'm having trouble switching to something else.

But damn, those silver z06's wheels are incredible. Just really hope they make something to fit the base model stingray. I already have a PM to Bob @ House of Wheels

Getting the Shark Gray Metallic color also with gray interiors and the silver wheels. My accent color will be red (like the side reflectors are) so ordering red calipers. Going one step farther and installing aftermarket red trim strip on the rim edges.

Went with the standard ZF1 silver painted, I like the look best at no extra cost. May do a chrome wheel exchange for around $600.00 if I get board.

I say silver Z51 wheels and yellow Calipers.
it's a toss up on the red vs yellow as each balance out the side markers - yellow in front, red in back.... tough choice.
