The polished for sure. Painted wheels have never looked good on a Vette to me.

You're in the wrong thread. The OP specifically asked about OEM silver painted or polished wheels. I'm color blind and even I can see the very clear pictures.

I never said it was a color, LOL, I said even a color blind person could see that black wasn't an option in the OP's pics.
