I have met the designer of the new ZL1 wheels and he spent a lot of time with the design and paint color / finish. I have seen the wheels in person a few times and they are a very elegant, beautiful wheel. But.... in my opinion the elegant design just does not go with the aggressive nature and looks of the rest of the car. Just my opinion. But having the polished 5 spoke ZL1 wheels on my car and knowing what a pain they are to keep clean, I cannot imagine the cleaning time on these multi spoke wheels. I'm pretty sure the designer did not clean a set of these rims before final approval.
