Default Wheel decision?

On monday i am buying my first F-body. 2000 Camaro SS vert auto Light pewter metallic. My dilemma is that it has the stock 17" SLP chrome 10 spoke wheels in which the chrome is peeling on all 4, plus the tires have 5k on them. Seller also has a brand new set of black C5 ZO6 wheels 17" that i could have instead of the chrome stockers, I dont know which ones to pick??

5K isn't bad on the tires. If you can get brand new Z06 wheels for the same price I would go with them over peeling chrome ZR1 wheels.

How much are the wheels going for? Might not be a bad deal, tires with only 5k is good saves you a chunk of money.
