While we await the next Corvette Z06, how does the Z51 scratch that itch?

Good God...those wheels!

They certainly fit the car. Which is good god ugly. Like they looked at the C7 and wanted the Corvette to be both more aggressive and more Camaro. In that vein, yea the wheels were a solid choice. 

Those wheels ain't it, Chief. Look like Gothic snowflakes.

Well thank you, oh arbiter of all things ugly and not. What the world really needs is more people making subjective statements as if they were objective.

Seriously? They look like they belong on a Hyundai Sante Fe.

TE37 all the things. 

Different wheels and losing the goofy rear spoiler would make a world of difference. 

Overall the C8's lines aren't awful, but it's got the typical GM issues with rolling stock and weird accessories.

Looks like you can get the Z51 package with the standard wheels, too.

(And, technically, the dark wheels are an option.)

Here are the other available wheels.

Those are better, but still no prize. A nice simple wheel would be so much better. Part of the problem with GM wheels is the addition of needless additional details. Less is more. 

And you can do these, too. I kinda like the all-black version. Note: "Second set of wheels."

Anyone else remember when you could order a Camaro SS with a second set of wheels mounted with some BFGs? This was 1996 or so.

Regarding the rear spoiler, check this out:

I remember when Chevy said this car was going to cost $50k too......

I like these 

I think wheels and some subtle visual tweaks make a big difference. 

(ps. Not my car)

Dang.

That's what came on my '20.  I've seen prettier wheels on c8s but I can't complain.

Man, how reluctant were you guys to give this one back to the press office?
