Default 2009 Z06 wheels

Does anyone like the new style? I think the look great, but I have yet to see them on an Fbody or C5.

These are the only pictures I could find of them.

It appears that GM has put a new color on the 2009 Z06 as well, close to that of the dark shadow grey found on 03+ cobras.

They look good on the vette. And I saw the new vette, with these wheels, in what I guess is the new gray color. It was next to me at a local car show. It's sweet looking, like a dark gray, steelish metallic

I really don't like those wheels. The more I see them, the more I think they're a step backward.

And, yes, it is Cyber Grey Metallic.
