Same here. So happy my car came with them. I’ve wondered if these came standard on the 2017’s or if the person who bought the car new bought them as an upgrade. I think they are the best looking wheels.

The 1LE rims are great too.

I love the 2019 ZL1 wheels, but as already stated, they are a real pain to clean. That said, I will keep them anyway, just work harder to keep them clean since this beast produces a ton of brake dust.

Replaced the silver SS wheels the first week with black 1LE ones, or rather placed the order for them in that first week.

I like the stock wheels on my car very much.
However I think I will repaint them to be dark metallic silver like the ones on a Challenger SRT 392 a friend of mine has.
It should look pretty good.

Now if they could just make them in "brake dust" color it would be perfect.

I have a 17 ZL1 with the OEM wheels. I'm not a fan... They're not bad looking, but there are so many designs from different SS models that look better. The OEM SS 1LE and original Z/28 wheels are some of the best looking wheels for our cars. That being said, I'm shopping for wheels as I type this. I really like the MMR Z/28 Style wheels, but they seem to be so common now. The hunt is on, so I'll either post my OEM wheels for sale, or hold on to them to place back on the car when I'm ready to sell the car.

The RS Split Spokes are nice and all, but I'd rather have the Black SS single spoked ones anyday of the week.

Silver split spokes for me. I LOVE them. When I first saw them I had to have them. Just got lucky enough to find a car that had everything I could possibly want.

I ordered the grey painted machine faced wheels. Thought they would look good with the silver, and they do. No plans to change.


For the brake dust, look into the Powerstop Z26 pads.

I'd have to vote love them. IMO The factory wheels on the Camaro just flow perfectly with the car IMO. No offense to anyone with aftermarket wheels but to me most of the time they scream aftermarket and look out of place

I have the 20" split spokes on mine. I like the contrast with the black. Thought about changing them but haven't found the right ones yet.

I like them. Stock SS wheels. Biggest turn off would be they look exactly like Toyota Highlander wheels.

THIS!!!

The SS 1LE wheels beat out many aftermarket wheel designs as well.

With the exception of exotics, I don't think there is a better stock wheel design offering out there.

The added bonus with the SS 1LE is that the fitment for wheel gap (minimal) and the wheel being flush with the fender is ON POINT!!!. the SS 1LE wheel fitment is the only car I have had where I didn't want to add spacers.

Even the C7 Z06 and Grand Sport have a more tucked in look compared to the SS 1LE

I do like the Mustang PP2 wheels as well.
