Default Which wheels to get?

Here is a pic of what the car looks like right now with 17'' American Racing Longboards.



Black zr1's



Black 10 spokes



35th Anniversary wheels



Gunmetal z06 w/polished lip



Just wanting to get an idea of what people thought about the wheel choices. If you guys think I should choose another option of wheels, let me know. I might cut and crop to see what they would look like on my car. Open for some opinions, so please let me know what you think. Thanks!

I like the black ZR1's and I'm usually not a fan of black rims but they look good on your car..

leave it the way it is. I dont see why you would change from a custom wheel to a stock wheel.

Looks good the way it sits. But, if I have to pick, the black ZR-1's look the best!

Hmmm, I think you should get the machined C6 Z06 with the inside of the spokes black like the 35th wheels.

Yeah, because at one point there was a ZO6 camaro.

Honestly, I don't like any of the wheels you have chosen. But If I had to,I would pick the ZO6 wheels, only if they didn't have fake rivets.
