I think chrome Z06 Motorsports would look better on the car. I don't care for Camaro wheels on Firebirds personally, or vice-versa. If you are set on black wheels, the Z06 wheels would look better in my opinion.

Here's the Z06s... didn't have time this morning to do Zr1s but I am sure if you do a search you'll find someone who has already done them on a red bird.
