I kinda wish they would offer a Grey Wheel.

I like the black because it ties in with the vents and helps make them less conspicuous. So far I'm liking Lime Rock Green with black wheels.

Silver just like the CG car. The chrome for some reason doesn't look good on the C7.

I AM IN LOVE WITH THE NEW ZR1/L88 wheel in silver, chrome, or (black with red stripe on a black car)!!! That "Y" is the best wheel from the factory in years!! Sorry I don't have a pic but the Keeks cad, and freeze frame from GM video show it.

Here is Blue C7 with Chrome wheels, that I've seen on the other Corvette site. It was spotted in So-Cal according to the poster.

Silver Z51 wheels. Chrome doesn't look on this design.

Please show us or provide a link of ANYTHING that states a certain wheel is for the C7 ZR1 or anything referencing the C7 actually having an L88 engine (and, apparently, specific wheel)…
At this point, unless you actually have some serious insider info, both the ZR1 & L88 are pure vapor…
Although, I DO lust after the (equally vaporous) Z51R/L88 combo…
Oh, and I prefer black wheels…!
You know what they say; once you go black, you never go back…!

I had the C6 polished wheels [2006, 2008] and chrome [2010] previously, I plan or ordering Z51 silver this time around for my C7.

Black all the way, unless I picked lime rock green, then I think it would look best with silver wheels.
No chrome since I missed out on the 1960s
