Mine came with the polished. The black looks good too, but IMO, the black looks better on the 1LE's. The black hood kind of ties everything together. Awesome vehicle either way. I ordered some chrome wheels for it because deep down im old school and love the shine! I may have my polished ones fully polished as well. I have seen them dipped, but not fully polished. Either way, you will love the car.

My BRM has the polished wheels...my only complaint is that they're a pita to keep clean. I do, however, think the black wheel adds a sinister appearance to the dark color. I can see dark tinted windows on BRM, along with the black wheels, looking almost as evil as the all black cars. Just getting the black tail light bezels changed the whole look of the rear of my car.

I ordered my BVM with the polished wheels. I like the contrast against the blue. The car should be here next week.

Here's a pic of mine. Even with the black top I still think the polished wheels are the better look with BRM.

Personally... the black ten spoke wheels make the ZL1 look bad ass, the polished wheels make it look cheaper!! I know, opinions are like a$$holes....everyone has one. Thanks Chevy for the options!

I will have to say I like the polished wheels on the blue. The black wheels are ok but the polished makes the car.
