Neither. Keep your stockers.

If you DO need to pick between the two, ZR1's all the way. I assume you mean C5 Z06's, and those look like *** on 'Birds.

If you really want to change from your stockers, go with the chrome Z06s. i think chrome looks better on silver cars than black wheels do.

+1. I think those WS6 wheels look great. If you want a black wheel, get those painted or get a set of CE wheels. I've never been a fan of ZR1s on a Trans Am. I had them on my 00 TA and never did like the look.

I think you should just keep the stockers too. Just get them widened if you want a wider rear wheel, would be cheaper than buying a whole new set of rims and tires, plus it would look kick ***.
