Oem cups are satin, not matte finish and the best look in my opinion

It's Inferno Orange, but looks red, you get the impression, these are gloss black.

I too am planning to go with Cup wheels at some future point, hopefully sooner than later. I currently have gloss black C7Z wheels (came on the car), and I like them, but there's just something so sexy about the Cup wheels. After reading about all the issues finding tire options for the 19/20 combo, I'm considering 19's all around, or 18/19 repros. Satin of course.

satin cups are sweet, i am not a fan of the red stripe, looks goofy and makes it look like you are trying to hard to make the car look better when really it makes it look worse, but thats my opinion

Do a search in the C6 parts section, or in the Wheels section and you will find a bunch of Forum suppliers that sell them. I ended up getting mine used, they were takeoffs from a 2017 GS with the tires (500 miles on them), with the correct TPMS installed with black lugs for about $3150, delivered.

Not a Z06, but a GS. These are satin Centennial Cup wheels. I think they look very sharp
