Black or Chrome wheels???
Black or Chrome wheels??? Originally planned on going with chrome, but a friend keeps telling me i should go with black wheels. So i wanna know, what you guys think.
Black w/ polished lip or Chrome wheels for my car? Feel free to suggest a set of wheels while your at it.
Here's a pic to see how the car looks. GS stripes will be removed once new wheels are on. I put them on for friends to tell the difference between my car and the other 3 LE's driving around locally.

Those wheels? Or any wheels? I've always liked black with a chrome lip, and also just chrome. For those wheels, I'd say get rid of the black between the spokes and make it all one color -- chrome.
On a red camaro..I would do all black w/ no chrome. At the end of the day it's your car. I asked the guys on a few threads below yours and that gives me good input on my choices ,but get the wheels that you like best and not someone elses. Good Luck man
Well at the moment, im open to any wheels out there. im just a little torn between the color, i like how they look in both chrome & black. just trying to see what you guys think.

I personally like the 35th wheels. I agree with lowering it and keeping the wheels. But as far as wheels I am not feeling the black ZR1's on the car. To me they don't flow with the silver stripes. I would go with something silver with a polished lip. The new deep dish ZR1's would look good and flow with the silver 35th stripes much better. Here is the link to the deep dish ZR1's.

Another option is a set of C6 Z06 machined face with black in between the spokes in 18's all around. That way you can keep the theme of the 35th but with a lareger wheel.

I say do that/\ Would look killer on your car... and x2 on lowering and getting rid of the fender stripes. I have NEVER seen a car that those "grand sport" stripes actually looked good on, sorry just my opinion.
as biased i am to black wheels, i think your car would look best with chrome wheels. it goes with your current silver/red theme and corner lenses. lowering it would be nice, whistler mod would look good too!
Thanks for the input guys, this is a main reason im thinking of black wheels..
Ill have the berger panel mod done here soon, ordered the SLP SS grille. This adds some black to the car. I think ill leave the grille black. To me i think black wheels would then go well with this look. I can also smoke the corner's or buy a new set of halo's w/ black housing and smoked corner's together from ebay. what do you think of this???
I will be lowering the car as soon as i get the money for the shocks/springs. Strano's/Koni's is what ill be going with. Just wanna get my mind set on what color wheels right now.
Oh and ill be removing the gs stripes once i get wheels. I just wanted my car to be more unique and different from the other 3 LE's driving around locally.

Thanks for the reminder, ive heard that about the ebay corner lenses. I think i will be going with a set of black ZR1's. Maybe ill see if someone on here has a set of stock ones or maybe locally in a junkyard that i can get. If not, just nightshade the clears i have.
Thanks for all the comments guys, think ive decided to go with a set of black deep dish zr1's from ebay, along with nightshading the corner's and gettin a set of halo's with the black housing and selling my chrome housing halo's to a friend.
