Default Chrome SS Zr1's or Black C6 Z06 on a Black SS

I am getting mixed results from the yocals on my recent install of the Black C6 Z06 wheels on the 99 Black SS. Would like to hear the Pro's opinions.

Lowered on chrome ZR1s all day long man...

Put the 11" ZR1s on the rear with some Nitto drag radials and you'll be set.

The chrome definitely looks the best. I'm not a fan of the all black wheels.

I voted chrome ZR1's, I hate the new C6 style wheels. Maybe if it was a C5 wheel I'd vote for them.

I liek the Z06's. I like the all black look, it makes the car look mean. Plus, they're different, chrome ZR1's are everywhere.

And remember, whatver the local say, it's you car, so it only matters if YOU like them. Who gives a fawk what they think.

Chrome ZR1's. ALL black wheels look like *** since there's no contrast and the tires and wheels blend together. It looks like a car with black steel wheels that lost it's hubcaps. Black centers with a chrome/polished lip look good. The all black look is so played out it's not even funny.

ZR1s, all black only looks good if you keep your tires shined and car spotless....even then it's not my favorite

ZR1's. The chrome wheel gives a better contrast on a dark colored car.

those ALL black z06 wheels sometimes do look sick. But sometimes having too much black can make or break the look of the car. Ive seen black cars with all black rims and when dirty they look like crap. They look like 4 spares rolling around. Thats why i decided to go with a black rim with a chrome lip and chrome center cap. But if i was to chose between your TWO choices, I would go with the chrome zr1's

Can't go wrong with ZR1 wheels. There's a reason they are popular. Besides that I think it's too much black with your other setup.
