Default Factory Wheel Options On The '06??

Hi All -

Just wondering if someone can tell me what the factory finish wheel options are/were for the '06 (not Z06)??

I was told that there are/were 3 different wheel finishes offered, but I'm not sure what they are/were.

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

They also have an option for grey painted. You get the standard silver painted but the grey painted are a $295 option. And you are correct that the other options are polished and chrome.

Ah yes, how could I forget the competition wheels? Silly me! I'm not a big fan of that style myself, although I can see how someone would like them since they don't have to worry about cleaning the brake dust off them, since they always look like they've got a coating of brake dust on them.

Thanks guys. One last question....do the polished wheels have a clear coat on them or are they bare aluminum?

Thanks again.
