Older ZR1's are perfect for f-bodies; especially Camaros. The new style looks like they belong on an Escalade or something. Too much action/bling for an amazing car.

And I never understood the "why put Vette' wheels (ZR1's) on a F-body?" statements. Well, how about because THEY CAME WITH ZR1 style rims from the factory--not making them just Vette wheels. Just like they came with LT1's and LS1's that guess what, STARTED IN A Corvette. I suppose they should have never of came with those either?

I have seen way too many cars running the old ZR1's. They look good, but I have seen so many cars with them that they are boring IMO. I think it is time for a popular new wheel for the f-body. I personally am buying the new ZR1's soon, just can't make up my mind on what size to get.
