Default Will I Be the 1st Person to Put Silver 17x11" ZR1's on a TA??

I have searched all over the internet and looked at pages and pages of pictures on the OE wheels thread, and can't find a picture of 17x11 ZR1's(not black) on a Trans Am. These are the ones I want to put on my lowered, black TA and can't find a picture of what it would look like anywhere. I know I won't really be the first person ever to do this lol...so where are the pics? Does anyone have one?

Mine is a Formula WS6, but I had the silver ZR1's on 5-6 years ago. Once I got the new rims they became my race rims.

These are the best shots I have uploaded already.

sorry to burst your bubble but ZR1's have always been a popular modification since the late 90s.

True, they are not terribly unique. If anything, people have just moved on to other things now.

I have seen tons of them as autocross set rims and many of those were 11" on all four corners. The real OEMs were pretty light.

Then where are all the pics..where's your link? There's no bubble to burst lol, I know they are popular and are out there. I'm just saying that I don't see many trans ams with silver or chrome 17x11" ZR1's, and it's VERY tough to find pics of them. I started looking because thats what I want on my car, but it's hard to get an idea of what they'd look like because pictures of this are hard to come by for some reason.

Thanks...are those 11" in the rear though? I searched all over google images and the pic thread from oem tires and the pics are very limited to say the least. I'd really like to find a black TA like mine, lowered on the 11" ZR1's, but I may be pushing it lol.
