Default NBM Formula - Chrome ZR1's or Chrome Zo6's??

New wheel time! I'm leaning on Tomz Chrome ZR1 17x9.5 17x11, But I also like the Z06 reg wheel 17x9.5 all around. Any one have pics of these wheels on a NBM bird???? And what do you guys like???

I like the look of 11" out back, but the overall look of Z06 wheels better.

JMO but I would never put Chevy wheels on a Pontiac.

Look for something unique/different.

Car looks good SSZapper! I see the Z06's on alot of T/A and Formys around my area, Thats why I like the ZR1's a bit more but they both look great.

Out of the 2, ZR1's, the ZO6's dont fit the lines of the Firebird/TA at all. ZR1's look the best out of the two. However TTII > Any replica wheel.

That makes no sense, with that mindset and to be consistent you wouldn't put a Chevy motor in a Pontiac either...

ok... i dont know if this will help but here it goes.... on my first 93 t/a i had silver zr1's 11" out back.... loved them... sold the car with them.... got this black formula and had 9.5 silver z06's all around... got bored with them... sold them bought these AR TTM 9.5 all around.... had these for maybe 2 months... and already im wishing i went with zr1's again... i wanted to try somthing new so i got the AR wheels... zr1's are just the best looking wheel on f-bodies (other then pricey fikse ccw hre... etc...) id go zr1... i might later on after these AR wheels...
