I love the Z06's...but the Y2K's are just clean!! I love a clean, but stylish look and the Y2k's definitely have that. They are subtle, but yet very nice and a definitely noticable upgrade!!

Oh yeah....do the Y2K's!!!

Are the zo6's 17's on all 4 corners? If so, go up to 18's and they will look a hell of a lot better.

I'd do 18 x9.5 ups front too and go with the Z-06's. Personally I like the WS6 older style better and the wheels you have now are much better quality then the replicas you are looking at... and still look good. I'd keep what you have and save up for some used FM5's but my opinion is kinda biased

Just my opinion
The Y2k's look better on a T/A. Ans the Z06's on a Camaro.
