A lot of people complain about black because you can’t see the detail. I have black and love them. I vote black but silver is fine.

Factory Silver,then Giovanna Dalar 5's in Black then ZL1 5 spokes in silver.

I would have to say Black as the shiny stuff is a PITA to keep clean.

Black

I just ordered some 20/10,20/11, MRR M017's. Probably going to put Firestone Indy 500 tires on. 285/35/20 front and 305/35/20 rear. Does that combo sound good? I know some put 315's on the back but I don't think the Firestones come in that size.

Black, I go back to when black came into style. When the Corvette Grand Sport wheels were black. It looked like a race car. That was it for me, every car I've had, has had black wheels since

Just changed my tire size to:Rear - 315 35 20
Front - 275 40 20

I never was a fan of black wheels but it works with these cars. I prefer the black.

Correct, the Indy 500's don't come in a 315. I got those wheels last month and went with a 315 Continental ExtremeSport Contact in the rear and moved the Indy 500 275's to the front. I will eventually get the Conti's up front too but I ran out of $$$.

Either way, you will LOVE these wheels. They look amazing and totally changed the look of my car.

I went with the Conti's 315's rear and 275's front. I really like the way it turned out! Totally different look.

Looks nice. I was thinking about getting the replica 1LE's in gun metal grey for my black SS. Maybe black? Anythings better than the teal green rims I had on my teal green 91 RS when I was a kid.

Thanks, I think the black would look good.

Love the black and I just changed over to the same exact tires and sizes thanks to 1JEWLDSSRS's help. You are going to love how they ride.
