I rock stock WS6 rims really light sturdy well made and looks like a ZR1 just different enough to stand out.

I know, I ***** this alot and 56K too bad, just too bad.

You should also pick a wheel width now. Are you gonna be satisfied with 265 tires or so, Or are you achin' for those 305+ tires.

I'd recommend black wheels because personally I love black on black.

Then you need 17x9 or 17x9.5 wheels.

Now, do you want $3000 wheels, or $400 wheels?

No they arn't, least I've read seen and heard that they are not the same.

sutble diference but it's there and these are right off a ws6. Zr1s are a tad thinner.

I can get a pic of the center cap even.

The wheels on the car in the second post are ZR1's. Whether they have a WS6 center cap or not.

hmm.
I dug around and read sticky says its the exact same rim.

So I guess we both are right.

I've always been told they are different, slighty but there was. I guess not then.

I always thought the ZR1s look alot skinnier.

Maybe i'm just goining insane, not that i'll rule that out.
