Default ZR1 wheels on C5. Whose got'em?

I just ordered a set of black Zr1 wheels for my silver c5. Kind of an impulse buy, hope it turns out good.

So anyone have any pictures?

What tire size is in the back? Is it the stock 325? I normally don't like the zr1 wheels, but in cyber gray they look good on your car. Thanks for the pics.
