Yup, all these chrome wheel hating trolls are out and about. Colored wheels have NEVER been mass produced on MUSCLE/ SPORTS cars for any significant length of time--they come and go and always will! Chrome is the #1 selling wheel finish for GM, but I guess GM doesn't know what they are doing and neither do we, huh.

I'm totally OK with Chrome people being cookie cutter.. Just like everyone else. Makes those of us w/o chrome more rare and interesting.

Like it or not, chrome has been around since the '60's...may not be liked by all but it aint going anywhere.

That said I'm jealous of all of you, no matter which wheel you chose!

There's a reason why Chevrolet is charging $2,000.00 extra for the chromes over the standard silver. Their trying to change the old mindset of these hideous chrome wheels. You will never see a chrome wheel on a Ferrari, Lambo, Porsche, Aston Martin etc. etc. from their factories. Chevrolet is desperately trying to educate their clientele of this but there are still some old stragglers out there.

I was originally on the fence about getting a new C7Z, but I'm convinced now, they are all beautiful. Still need to hold onto my C6Z though.

Please dont quote posts with multiple pictures. It clutters the entire thread. Thank you.

And love all of the pictures posted. Also not partial to any one kind of wheel. I like them all for different reasons.

JD, your car definitely looks great. In fact I'm considering that color myself. I've been thinking of CRM also but will definitely have silver wheels on either. I've had silver wheels on my Ferrari's and have never seen any chrome option from them as long as I've followed Ferrari.
