I cant wait for this car!!!!! I have had 8 Corvettes starting in 95
I bought a 96 LT4 red then had couple C5's verts (3) black
But My 3 loves were my
02 Zo6 Electron blue
07 Zo6 (stolen) Lemans blue
and then my 08 Zo6 Jetstream blue
Now 2014 Z51 TR
Soon my Zo6 from you will make 9.. Point is..... out of all of my Vetts NEVER had a yellow ... The yellow in the new Z just screams RACE CAR!!!!!
That will be my next color on my 2015 Zo6 from you!!!
Thanks for all threads and Info you give us in the Corvette community!

Really like those painted wheels with that Shark Gray.
I have to admit that the black front fender extensions/flares and front bumper carbon fiber extensions look a bit out of place, but it is done for the sake aerodynamics and not esthetics.

Clever how the carbon fiber side rocker panel extension "skirts" bow in at the bottom of the doors.
Maybe this is for ease of entry and exit.
Sharp color and aerodynamics on the '15 ZO6.

Bob you can't win the black wheel argument. It is fought everyday on the forum. Obviously wheel choice is personal opinion. I agree with you. Looking at the pictures you posted it is clearly better. But some people would put black wheels on everything...

Here ya go......... try black here and then with pearl/nickel... BOOOOM!
Lights `er up big time.
Yes, black wheels are fine on some colors, ie white, yellow, red...brightly colored cars. But....for me.....the black wheels on this color is a big mistake...... pizza delivery car without the hubcaps.

We will see how it looks when I get it 
... The wheels will look better in a gloss black over the pic you posted. Tinted windows and some mods and it will be nice.

I am sure the gloss black will look better....at least in the garage until they get a little dirty outside.
I have seen only three C7 ZO6 displayed cars by GM to date: a yellow w/black wheels; a white w/black wheels; and the TSG with P/N wheels.
There is a reason GM choose not to have black wheels on the TSG.
You have many months until you order and to contemplate your colors.

Stock wheels or Black until I can sale them and make a few bucks and replace with some nice aftermarket.
