Both could be power, neither could be.

However, if they are, they should move fore/aft and up down with little more than an electric motor whine....

Not a fan. They look like torque thrust or cragar wannabes but not nearly as nice.

I'd get the tire shop to get the correct rims. I'm sure you originally paid a premium from buying from a tire shop....so get what you actually wanted or you will never be happy.

Those would be better on an older Vette, like a C3, but I agree they aren't even as nice as TT2s.

If your not happy take them back and get the ones you ordered. If the wife is happy and all is well in family you may want to leave it alone. I would get what I paid for if it were me.

IF I'm not mistaken those are the same wheel that Andy and I have only in Chrome. Maybe a bit narrower as well. I have 9.5" in the front and 10.5 in the rear.

If you are the slight bit disappointed now, you will hate them later, so I'd recommend sending them back and keep looking.

I like TTMs a lot but still think the ZR1 style 5 spokes look the best on the C4.

In retrospect. I wish I had gone with the 10.5" rears... that stance looks TOUGH.

the thing is? I can buy them later... they aren't all that expensive.

I love the grey rim on white. looks sharp, Don.
