I get what you're saying Jim. I agree on the looks of the wheels. I like the new ZL1 wheels, but I really like the way the old and new 1LE wheels' spokes slant from the hub out toward the wheel lip, giving them that dished look. The ZL1 wheel probably has the exact same offset, but it's just more hidden, as the spokes are more vertical, then turn sharply toward the hub. That sets the center back in quite a bit.
I'd also like to see a second or third wheel option, like a polished wheel, or one with machined spoke faces and maybe lips (could still be the same dark gray other than the machined parts). I guess the down side of more wheel options would probably lead to a higher starting price for everyone as GM would spread out the added cost of design and R&D costs for the extra wheels.
