They look great, man. Chrome is hit or miss, but usually pops well on black cars.

What's not to dig? I like 'em a lot better than black on black, but that's just a personal taste thing. I agree with captain vette, they look better on your car than on a C7. Very nice ,

Thank you sir, I'm starting to like the look more. I'm more of a black on black look kinda guy, but after 4 years i thought i should try chrome.

I think i might agree to an extent i really wasn't a fan of them on the ZR1 which is why i was skeptical of buying these wheels, but i wanted to try something different.

Look great to me and they add to the overall appearance of your car. I wouldn't take the time to comment if they were black!

I love Chrome and think they look great on your car. Would definitely like a full side shot to see the car. Love Chrome on dark color cars.

Great choice!
