I like the look of mine. Liked the look on my 2014 2LT as well, but the "duller" gray look on my 2SS is very nice IMO, which is the only opinion that matters.

Go on tire rack and put your car and color in and it will show you on the car what they look like.

He will make sure you get the right size and the right wheel.

SS. They are cut out of the flat black vinyl so the red paint shows. They sell them with any kind of cut out you want - SS, ZL1, etc..

KaBoom1701 · 06-25-2015, 12:16 PM

The ZL1 or Z/28 look the best for a factory rim IMHO.

Mmar88 · 06-25-2015, 01:48 PM

If you go through the dealership for the 1LE wheels you'd be looking at $1104...per wheel...and then you'd have to factor in the price of the tires to fit them. I got a set of the good years for mine for a little under $1000.

Jeffro19 · 06-25-2015, 01:52 PM

The black ZL1 wheels are the best looking factory wheel. IMO

I have a 2013 2LT/RS. The front wheels are 20x8 and the real ones are 20x9. I have factory wheels that are chrome plated. You can get them from LA Wheel and Tire for about $200 per wheel, + about $120 postage to return your factory wheels. This is an exchange program where you get someone else's wheels that have been tested and chrome plated and then you send you wheels in and they are plated for the next customer. I had a Mazda Miata and did that on it and was one of the first things I did when I got my Camaro. I have a friend that is in the plating business and he examined my Miata wheels and said that the plating job looked very good to him. They have a large stock of wheels and usually send out the wheels in 1 to 2 weeks after receipt of your order and you have a reasonable amount of time to get your tires switched over and your factory wheels sent back to them. I feel that is an inexpensive way to get classy looking wheels for your car. And, no I do not work for them, I am just a very satisfied customer and live on the opposite coast from them.
