I don't have any pics of an early black C4, but here are two forum member's cars:
The one with chrome wheels is CAP94, and the one with black GS's is blackLT496's car. Both look great and it's more a matter of personal choice than anything.
Good Luck,

PS - If either CAP94 or blackLT496 don't want this photo up, pm or post and consider it gone.

I want to see the one with the leggy redhead sitting on the hood.
By the way, go with the chromes.

I'm gonna break ranks here and say either satin or black. I just have never liked chrome wheels on a vehicle that has no other chrome or polished accents. I've always thought of chrome wheels as great for classic cars, with chrome bumpers and stainless trim, but on newer cars chrome wheels are often the only shiny thing.

what do you have for a vette.... what color..... do you have pics..... the color of your car and the style of your car (84-90 more angular bumpers) or (91-96 rounded bumpers) is a key factor when picking out the proper wheels. Sure Chrome ZR1's will look good on any color any style but then you will be like the majority on this website if you go that route.
