Black Wheels Only With Z-51 Package

I may be reading the spec sheet wrong but it looks as if the Z-51 performance package only comes with black wheels? I was hoping for the wheels displayed at all the shows or the chrome.

I believe it means if you want Black wheels you have to get the Z-51 package. But with the Z-51 package you can get the machined ones or chrome ones as well though.

I believe that each style wheel will be offered in Black, Chrome or the silver/aluminum. The style will be restricted to the package you choose.

The way I read it, is there are two different styled wheels. The Z51 package wheels and the base wheels. The Z51 comes in black or chrome and the Base comes in machine or chrome. I don't see the black in the base or the machine in the Z51.

You can only get black wheels with Z51 but you have a choice of wheel with Z51.

You are correct on the black wheel, but you also have a choice in the base package. the standard wheel for the base model is the gray painted, but you can upgrade to chrome. I also believe that the base wheel design be it painted or chrome is a different design then what will be available in the Z51 package.

I believe it is page 6 of the ordering guide, that list the wheels and the RPO codes QX3 are for the chrome wheels and RQ1 is the machined face wheels and they are available in the base model only while the Q7E is the chrome wheels and the Q7T is the black wheels and they show available Z51 only. Also the first two that are listed for the base model are18 front and 19 rear while the Z51 is 19 front and 20 rear.
