I am getting Torch Red (w/ Z51) and am torn on the wheels. I was set on black, but now looking at some better pictures of the silver wheels, it looks stunning too, less aggressive but just as sexy.
So I am torn
Can people start posting real photos of each, this thread may help my decision!
I was sold on black until I saw this picture:

I previously owned a '02 Torch Red Z06 with gray wheels. I really like the combination. My next Vette was an '09 Artic White coupe with Comp Gray wheels. When I bought my current '10 Torch Red Grand Sport it came with the painted silver wheels. I thought it looked good but I thought it would look better with the Comp Gray wheels, so I bought a set of the Comp Gray wheels. I like my Vette better with the Comp Gray wheels.
When I buy my C7 I will buy either an Artic White or Torch Red Vette. There is a small possibility I buy Cyber Gray just for a change of pace since my last four Vettes have been either Artic White or Torch Red.
I am like a few of you and I cannot decide whether the silver or black painted wheels look better. Either will look fine. It is just a matter of taste. As for me, I will buy my C7 with either of the wheels, and probably have them powder coated Comp Gray.

If it makes any sense... the black wheels car looks more like a "vette"..
for some reason the silver wheels on that car makes it look more exotic/italian looking
Which one is the Ferrari 599 and which is the Corvette Stingray?

I would probably go with the silver if it has a nice metallic finish to it. The ones on my '00 were the painted silver ones and they looked great.
