ZR1's do look good, but I wouldn't trade or get rid of the 35th wheels... in another words buy a set of chrome ZR1s and keep stockers.

35th Wheels, but i think the ZR1's would look alot better in black. I dont really like them in chrome for some reason.

well im giong to change the wheels on the car sooner or later... i really want 315 35 17's on there, if they made my wheels in a deep dish i would def buy those... but seeing how they dont, i wanna change them... i know that a lot of people have Zr1's but i have loved these wheels since i was like 10 years old... there is a place the widen's wheels but like i said i dont wanna ruin my wheels, i do wanna keep them... it's either the Deep dish Zr1's or these... it's a guy on here that has them and they looks sick! EDIT: only if oewheels makes them in 17" deep dish... i do not want 18's tires are too damn expensive and i love the look of 17's!

too bad 35th wheels are uglier than already ugly 10 spokes. who cares if zr1s are more common than those. i am not going to put an ugly wheel on my car just to be different.

What ever you do keep the LE's.

I kinda feel the way you do, I want 315's but dont want to give up the LE wheels so I'm gonna have them widened to 11". I started a thread on 35thle.com on this very topic, check it out. It's got picks, specs and everything.
