Don't like it. The ZR1 style wheels look pretty good on the Formulas though.

I don't think it looks bad, but I'd rather have the ZR1s myself as well. But, I really am a fan of the stock 5 spokes I got some now, had the dumb salad shooters, and love em!

That looks odd...

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.

I dislike chrome rims (chrome anything really). Too flashy, takes away from the sport car aspect IMO.

They look good... but I never really cared for the newer stock SS rims. Zr1's Do look great with 11's in the rear.
