Opinions wanted on wheels

I just purchased a 2013 zl1 all black. They are coming with the stock platinum poking rims, I Am purchasing these rims.

http://m.ebay.com/itm/111572625646

Now do you think gloss black black is to much and will just make the black on the car look dull. Or should I get. Satin black set of rims? Thanks i advance.

Don't think you can go wrong with the gloss or satin...will you be selling the platinum rims?

Check out the FR Style 41 thread in the sponsor's wheel section. A lot of pics there of those wheels. It'll give you an idea of how the setup will look. I got satin black, but my car is AGM.

id stick with the OE wheel. Much stronger, lighter, and they look better than the fr41s. Maybe it's just me but the difference between the FR41 and the 10 spoke zl1 wheel is noticeable to me. If you just want cheaper replicas the LG Motorsport versions look better IMO

The difference is noticeable for sure, I actually prefer the fr41's over oem thou. Not having the curved spokes to me gives it just enough of an aftermarket look but not over the top. I believe the fr41's are actually lighter than stock but I could be wrong on that may have just been lighter than the regular camaro 20's. Technically stock is stronger because they are forged but there is little to no worry about the fr41s they hold up great
