Yeah i would go with zr1s, but i think the c5dd in a 18 is a much better looking budget wheel,even though 18inch tire prices are ridicules, but out of the 2 posted zr1s for sure,im with losing the gs stripes

Hey Fast
you gotta go with the 17x11 out back plus the Zr wheel looks better than the Zo6 wheels any day

C6 wheels look awesome aswell

Well out of those 2 choices, the ZR1's are the better ones. I never liked the C5 Z06's on Camaros and Trans Ams.

As for the GS stripes, with black outlines they would look a little better IMO. Not crazy on them but i dont hate them either.

These would be my daily driver wheels, both sets are 17x9 or 9.5.

Z06 are lighter they are GM, the ZR1's are replicas.

I have 2 sets of wheels to race on, both sets are GM wheels, a set of black Zr1's and a set of grey Z06 wheels, both 17x9.5.

In that case I like the ZR1s on your car better, and the chrome will be easier to live with daily use. Some 17x11 rears would really look nice tho.
