the silver definitely give it a more "hi-tech" look to it...chrome wheels are kind of out dated to me now.

it's a dent, but hardly noticable except in pictures where there is a lot of reflectivity,
you can barely notice it here.

I've seen a bunch of the 'race mode' with the Zr1's and figured these were for a 'street mode' setup. I still don't like chrome though. 
Did you get rid of the fat spoke c5's?

Maybe I should do body color with a shiny lip or something?
dtcustoms: is that $440 for a pair of chrome 17x9.5's or a set? I am very cheap when it comes to wheels and tires, I paid $200 for the chrome wheels with nearly new tires and I paid $160 for the pair of nearly new 555's and $50 for the pair of silver ZR1's.
I am probably going to go with silver, so if anyone wants to trade a mint pair of chrome 17x9.5 ZR1's (I think they are 9.5) for a decent pair of silver 17x9 or 9.5 ZR1's, let me know.
Oh, and I sold the fat spoke C5's to a friend of mine that needed tires for his Y2K wheels.

can you get the 17x9.5 chrome in pairs? I can't afford new tires and the tires I just bought are nearly new.
