Are those the wheels that come on the Atlantic edition? I would have thought you would have gotten the Z51 wheels. They look like the accessory torque directional wheel.

The Atlantic is a few noches above the standard Z51. Inbetween Z51 and Z06 option wise. Check out the Chevy build your own for all the features.

I believe those are the same wheels that came on the premier edition convertibles.

That depends on how you define your notches. Last I checked it simply adds the following:
- Front Z06-style splitter
- Shark Gray exterior vents, hood “stinger” graphic and tonneau inserts
- Chrome Torque wheels with Stingray center caps
- Stingray underhood liner and floor mats
- Custom splash guards, rear license plate frame and logo valve stem caps
- Custom luggage.
It'll be interesting to see how "custom" the luggage and splash guards are. I prefer my custom touches, as does everyone w/ their own.

Why even bother making it for 2015. In less than 3 months they will start with 2016. I don't understand The stupid crap they do! Besides looks like a waste of money to me.

So....
No bigger brakes
No enhanced suspension
No dry sump oil system
No MSRC
No ELSD
No PTM
I fail to see this model as "a few notches" above a z51. Or does it have all of the above items?
EDIT. Google showed me this package is added to the z51, not to the base model as I had assumed.
