Trying to decide between some wheels, AR 200S, ZR1, and ZO6. Will be a 17x11/17x9.5 combo.

200s


zr1


z06

We have the 200s on our 98 and they look awesome.

Well the zo6 rims are out as they don't make a 17X11. If they did I would be all over them as a lot of others would be as well.

Wheels can be widened. I've got a few quotes, roughly $75-100 per wheel.

I like the ZR1's myself. They look more muscular to me. The ZO6's look good but... I guess it depends on the look your going for. And the first picture, the 200S I don't think they look good on a Camaro.

Don't care for the AR 200s at all

Can't go wrong with zr1s (can get 11inch widths)

Can't go wrong with c5 z06s (can get 10.5inch widths)

If you stick with 17's get the ZR1's. If you go Z06's get them in 18's. They look to small in 17's.
