You better get 24's. Because your theory of not willing to spend 2k on oem 22's but willing to spend it on aftermarket replica's has me confused.

Real GM OEM wheels.... SEY are like $400 a wheel :(

Factory Reproductions does not make them..... OE wheels LLC does, but they have a 1 year finish. I asked Robbie and FR themselves.... said no plans for it anytime soon.

Really the ONLY 2015 GM OEM wheels I like, and that I would drop money on are these.... (but not almost 2K just for wheels)

If I did 24's (impractical when you drive a lot.... also the 5.3 is a dog anyway....... need better brakes....) it would be amongst these.

At the end of it all I might just get a can of plasti dip and dip my old ones.

I think straight chrome on your color. The grey makes the chrome pop. Such a clean look. Maybe come down a inch more in the back and you will be perfect.

Another thing I think would look good, chrome handles and mirror caps. I know you aren't a chrome guy, just imo.

I hate the misconception about 24" needing bigger brakes and not able to be daily driven... You don't need bigger brakes with 24".
