Z51 Split Spoke Wheels Alone?
When I build a car and select the Z51 silver painted wheels it automatically adds the ZF1 Appearance Package. I really don't want the spoiler. Can you get the wheels as a stand alone option?

This topic was recently explored by another member on the forum - it is NOT possible from the factory to obtain the Z51 wheels as a standalone. Any dealer who says you can is lying to you.

$1995 for the ZF1 option is a deal. Not sure why you dislike the Z51 spoiler so much. I believe you'll love it once you have it.

I was all set , ordering my car + $1995 for the ZF1 option, and another $1995 for chrome upgrade. Then the bad news, it can't be done.
I have a base car on order at Criswell. They are helping me by crediting me $1000 on my base wheels and tires, and selling me a brand new set of proper Z51/ZF1 wheels, because I too, don't care for the add-on spoiler. Deleting the $4000 chrome /ZF1 upgrades is about what it costs to buy the wheels at the dealer give or take a few bucks. I didn't want to put used wheels on my new car.
I hope this is the end of the silliness I have to endure from GM, in my new Corvette adventure.
