I don't think they look bad, but the SS wheels just look strange to me on a 'Bird.

The ZR1's don't look too bad though.

Great looking Formula though, I love the white ones.

Same here. I went with Speedlines, but it still took me quite a while to find a nice set at a good price. I love them though, totally worth the wait.

Looks sharp! Before I decided on C6s, I seriously considered those same wheels. Great decision not to go with the "same old same old" ZR1s or C5 Z06s.

Just saw your sig too... where did you find the production numbers including color? All I could find was that there were 901 Formulas built in 2002.

I guess if you weren't into these cars and didn't know that those wheels were Camaro wheels it'd look fine, but it just looks out of place to me.

agreed, i like the ws6 chrome wheels on firebirds myself.
