I think you are correct.

The thing about any type of ZO6 wheels is that they are must in at least 18's. IMO of course.

I really liked your car with the black GS wheels. Remember I ordered mine after seeing yours. The silver ones on your car right now are ~YAWN~ lol.

GS looks much meaner than the Z06 wheels on your car.

Chrome wheels (I have the small stock ones) look great on silver. If you like the musclecar look, then the Torque Thrust 'D's with the grey centers and polished lip look great - but I don't think they come any bigger than 16.

My vote is going back to the GS wheels. The Z06 wheels make the car look dull and plain.
