I like without... but with the small caps......doesn't look as heavy and gives more depth and dimension to the wheel...

You know this is the direction I would follow, Carter will make the sweet wheels even Sweeeeeter! You need to update the center logo anyway.

I voted "with" already, but looking at ZONER 95's with the small cap's, I like that better.

I see that you are near Philadelphia.
It’s like your ordering a Cheese steak ----- “Wit or Witout”!

Here is my view:
Witout: The wheel looks unfinished. Looks like something is missing. The hole for the center cap looks out of place. Only thing saving this look is the small center cap over the wheel bearing. That could be improved by adding a ZR-1 or Corvette logo to it.

Wit: The large center cap covers the ribs and is a small improvement. Unfortunately, it’s a bit larger than I would like. An upgrade would be to add a large ZR-1 logo in place of the Corvette logo. I like the idea of identifying our cars as ZR-1 s. They look too much like regular ‘vettes and need something to make them stand out.

Other ideas:
A custom center cap that covers the five ribs but allows the lug nuts to be seen. Think of a starfish shape which would provide a more finished look. Could be expensive to make though.

Add a paint stripe around the rim. Break up the monochromatic look.

I like the full center cap but not too crazy about the emblem.How about a custom made full center cap with a ZR-1 logo?
