Here are the pics. Sorry for the sun in the first pic but I didn't want to wait on taking the pics after her test run.... umm.... TEST DRIVE... is what I ment to say.
Couple of side shots. [IMG]http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f303/rklessdriver/Corvette/DSC00043.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f303/rklessdriver/Corvette/DSC00044.jpg[/IMG] Here is a pic from the top. As you can see the 1.75" BS and 6" wide (sectional) tire fit really good. A little further out on the very front than I would have liked - but 2.25 BS wheels just ain't going to work with the big brakes and practically no offset brake rotor hats these late model cars have. It'll work fine at the track. [IMG]http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f303/rklessdriver/Corvette/DSC00045.jpg[/IMG] I can't wait to go racing Wed night. Will |

Those look really nice. I like the chrome look on a white car. I don't remember, are you doing the rears, too?

Yea, so far so good, but I definately agree with Don, they'd look badass on the rear. |

Thanks for the positive comments guys.
I am planning to buy matching rears as soon as: 1. I get the $$$$. I've got almost $850 tied up in those 2 front wheels and tires. That is alot of scratch for a guy about to be jobless.... 2. I decide if I'm going to stay with the 315/35R17's on the rear or go with a more 6spd friendlier 275/60R15. I need to get some track time on the car and see if I can get it to 60ft better than 1.80 on the current 17's... Also don't discount that I'm a function over finish guy everday of the week. All I'm looking for is that 7.0X-6.9X 1/8th mile time slip. If I go out Wed and clip that time off, this thing could be wearing mixed matched wheels at the track for years. I won't drive it very long (just to the track and home) with the skinnies on the front anyways... IMO it looks good for every day use with the ZR1 A Molds and I intend to keep them on the car most of the time. I know almost all C4's have them, they are played out, ect ect - but they are very "stock looking" and that's what I aim for 99% of the time with this car. LOL. I don't need a bad ass car to look bad ass. I need a bad ass car to look STOCK. I can make way more $$$ that way. Will |
