Are these going to be your winter wheels or something?

PS: And as Stock Boy says below, I do think they look great as they are!

I like the factory rims, they set the package off and they only come on the 1LE and Zl1.

Love the gray..
But it doesn't go with the black hood & spoiler.

I like the gray. Would be interested in seeing them in a full shot with the hood and wing because, as others have said, it might not go well with the hood and wing.

Those are sharp looking for sure. What size rim are those? Maybe it is just an optical illusion, but those look like they could accommodate a tire with a lot more sidewall. I am planning on ordering a '15 1LE as soon as the constraint on Blue Velvet is off, and I want to get something like that for daily and cold weather (autumn) driving. Want to save the stock rims and tires in the heated garage for winter and track days.

Leave em like they are. But if we could see them in black then we might say that color also. I say plasti dip them and see if you like them more before powder coating. Can always just peel the plasti dip off.
