They should look exactly the same as the SS/ZR1 wheels with spacers - just 8" instead of 9.5" wide. Those wheels look good on a thirdgen.

They also have a deeper dish on the front side, which is the only reason I don't have stock ZR-1's on my car. The stockers look too much like FWD rims, the ones from SLP look awesome, now if only they make them in a 9 or 9.5 I'll be all over them. Also, with spacers, the brakes (even if you've got 13" rotors) look so small and far away. The wheels from SPL should address that, since they have a 5" backspace, instead of the Corvette 7" or so.
