I think that the new ones do look awesome, but its still way too much for me, especially on an f-body. So im gonna have to go with the older style.

i think the new ZR1s will look much better on a camaro than a T/A...

the old ones have had a good run, simple and cheap and is a nice upgrade from the stock fbody wheels. I'm sure there will be plenty of people posting up pics of the new ones so im looking forward to seeing pics!

I'm sorry but I like the new ones. I think they look nice with the factory body kit.

I just dont get the craze of putting vette wheels on the F-Body. I know they are bigger and they fit.....But i bought an F-Body because thats what i wanted. No reason of living out vette pipe dreams cause we share the same wheels.....I REALLY dont get puttin vette wheels on a T/A...........Just my opinion...but i suppose i just like being original.

youve put it in nicer words than i have to date...

vette wheels on any f-body simply looks horrible, and IMO, shows a huge lack of taste. even worse are vette rims that are black with the polished lip...UGH...

I like the new one's. If they had a black set with a polished lip I'd get them in a heartbeat!

I like the new ZR1s. They remind me of the Fikse FM10s (with longer spokes and smaller center section), which are by far my favorite wheel.

I'd consider getting the new ZR1s if I could find them in black with the machined face.

Alot of people like the newer ones because it's the "new" thing. I like em' both but I think the older ones look better on f-bodies. I voted other, go buy yourself some CCWs.
