so my choices are
Black ZR-1's (not sure of black on the blue tho)
Black Z06's (again not sure of the black on blue)
Chrome Z06's (prolly be my choice)
Chrome Zr-1's (Maybe)

and if u guys know any other wheels that i could pick up for around 1000 a set or so let me know

What color blue are we talking here? I can't tell from the pic in your sig. My vote goes to chrome Z06's though because they always look killer on any Camaro I see, no matter what color the car is!

Be stupid and refuse, your car looks sick with those TT2s from what I can tell. Don't make it 'just another Camaro'

Well you asked for my opinion, so here it is; I really dislike black wheels on our cars. Get the chromies.
