Optional Wheel for Z06?

The coupe and convertible offer a choice on factory installled wheels. As we all know, the Z06 comes with it's own unique wheel. Would you like to have a choice of wheels for the Z06?

Yes...."technical" look and polished. Wheel finish really has a lot to do with exterior color. So all three would be great (dark argent silver (OE), technical look (Euro) and polished (chromies).

Machined with titanium finish. Hi-tech look and finish, light weight racing spec. would be nice. Polished option would be great on standard wheel also.

A thinner spoke (lighter) wheel would be nice

The Teddy Bear Wheels


You want a real eye catcher/ neck snapper.
Chomies or Polished would be great, I could keep it totally stock. Or maybe even and Black like the GS.

I think I might be interested in that option.
Otherwise, just having choices, be it wheels, axle ratios etc is always nice.

Sure it would increase the monthly payment only a few bucks. Roll it into the loan
