Default What looks better?

I've been getting varying opinions on which set of wheels look better on my car. I'd like to hear what you guys think. I'm trying to decide which wheels to put on before the fbody gathering.

Z06

ZR1

If it were my car I think some tt2's would look bad *** on there. But if I had to pick between the 2 id say the zr1's.

The Zr1's are a cleaner design, but Trans Am's are extremely radical cars. I think the busier Z06's look better. Maybe that explains why I love the HP Evo's on TA's. An 18" Z06 would look even better.

The poll is still really close. I'm hoping to get enough opinions to sway me one way or the other. I'm still undecided myself. Keep those opinions coming!

Real (factory) Z06 rims fit 315's easily they are just more expensive because they are 18's...

A 17X9.5" rim fits 315's as well... I've done that on two different cars.
