I've never seen the gloss black, please post up if you get a set. That color would prob look better on my car too.

ZL1's are only offered with 20" Dark Graphite wheels.
ZL1 1LE's are only offered with 19" low-gloss Black wheels. The only way you're getting ZL1 wheels in gloss black is if they've been powder coated. So looks like your best bet would be have your wheels powder coated gloss black. |

could see if factory reproductions offers them in that color.
thier wheels are perfectly adequate for the street; and it does not hurt anywhere near as bad when they get curb damage. then you could preserve or sell your factory set.

Here's one of many listings on e-Bay for our wheels in gloss black, therefore I assumed there might've been an option for them coming this way from Chevy
Besides while Obama was President I could've sworn I heard something stating black wheels matter, so I want my black ZL1 to look right. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Chevy-Camar...19.m1438.l2649 |

The factory wheels on a ZL1 are forged and only come in the Dark Graphite color unless they've been aftermarket powder coated. |

I have owned a 2017 ZL1 A10 & a 2018 ZL1 1LE.
On my current 2018 A10 I swear the wheels are darker than the 17 model wheels.

The real test will be to see if it comes in darker like the one mismatched wheel or will be lighter like the other 3. I hadn’t really noticed this until after I put the new dustless brake pads on...with the stock pads the wheels were always so dirty they looked the same!!

Oh well.... I gave in today to have my ZL1 wheels powder coated black instead of buying a set from a place in China that makes them who's probably affiliated with Panda Express.
Of course the Brembo calipers will be dosed with some red paint too while the wheels are off in order to help bring back the good 'ol days prior to the crash of America's economy in 2008. |

Well post pics when they're done. I'm considering having mine done in gloss black too with white calipers. |
