Optional Wheel Style or Finish? - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Settlemire mentioned on a CamaroZ28.com podcast that options would be for interior material (suede) and exterior color, and that's pretty much it.

Take that for what it is worth...

It would be nice if a "Competition Gray" like on the Corvettes was offered.

It takes longer for them to look like crap due to brake dust (unlike chrome or polished) and they look "all business".

....actually, it would be nice if they offered Comp Gray wheels as an option on all Camaro models.

Man that looks good

I love the look of the current ZL1 wheels, I think they nailed it with that design. But, if they offered a midnight chrome finish option....that would make the car look even hotter. I would order mine in all black, with the black chrome finished wheels. The Intimidator would give a grin for sure if he were still with us. I hope Chevy does the midnight chrome option. I mentioned this before Tom Oates Chevy was doing the factory SS wheels in that finish on his Calloway S/C upgrades and it looked so sharp. With the black carbon hood, black body panels and trim, and a black interior the contrasting exterior blend of all the black shades from flat to shiney and metallic will make it look so bad a__ evil. A Hell raiser for sure if there was ever one. Good guys wear black.

Black chrome would look awesome on the stock wheels

I'll add my vote - black, dark grey, or black chrome needs to be an option, this isnt the 90s anymore.

You're not the only one who isn't really feeling the ZL1 wheels.

You're also not the only one who loves the SSX wheels.

Options are a must.

they should have put some BBS LMR's
