Which wheels?
I have two sets of wheels for my car. I need tires. I would like opinions on which wheels look better before I put new tires on... I like 'em both, but not sure which to use this time. Tires are old and need to be replaced.
The stock wheels?

Even though ZR-1 are starting to get played out a bit, they're still 10 times better then stockers

Hmmm, I'm partial to the Cuisinarts and think they are one of the sharpest Vette stocks...looks like I'm sorely out-voted so far though....Nice looking car either way...

If you car was stock, I would pick the salad shooters, but with your body kit, I would go A mods.

I'm with mmercer. I like the stock wheels, but I am biased too, and no body kit.

Ok, why are the ZR-1 Wheels called A-Mods or A-Molds?

Let's be fair
Driver's side A-Molds or ZR1's
Passenger side : Stock 88's !
Lol !
I like the zr1's better but i love the 88's too ....
