Personally I am not a fan, but if my car had them stock I would keep them on a shelf somewhere.

Those are great for throwing on some street/track tires on for some fun nights out
Love my RS 20” rims just so classy
The Zl1 ones are a close second

I have the Zl1 reps, I like them much better than my stock SS ones. I want real Zl1 wheels but couldn't find a good deal on them. Looks are comparable but the lighter weight would be nice. As is the ZL1 reps dropped a few pounds from the stock SS wheels. I don't like the looks of the OP Pic.

Yeah you aren't going to find and OEM ZL1 rims for cheap as they are a forged lightweight rim.

I put up with the steelies for 7 years.
I stopped by the Chevy dealers parts department one day and they had a set of '20 SS takeoffs because the guy really wanted black. I think it was $520 i talked them down to IIRC and don't regret it. Fantastic wheels!

9.5s rear and 8.5s front, new TPMS, new Generals, roughly $1800 invested total.
Like the ZL1's they are really opened up compared to the fifth gen SS wheels, so much so that i painted the rotors along with the calipers.

Best of all they fit the wheel openings unlike the steelies.

sorry but i don't like any OEM wheel except the ones i have, the ZL1 black double spokes. Those alloy ones look horrific to me, but of course that's just my personal opinion!

Those are alloys? I thought they were steel.
