Steve,

What size tires are you running there? They look huge in your sig pic, or did you just REALLY lower the car?

RonRed89,

Thanks for the compliment. Actually, I LOVE the FM5s, but just didn't want to spend 4K on wheels alone. These Simmons are pretty cool. They're actually silver in the center and polished lip. I could have got them polished centers, but elected to try it without for now. They turned out nice and were 1/2 the price of Fikse at similar weight and quality. My other choice was the CCWs which Mojo has posted (Nice wheels Mojo!).

If I could have done my wheels over again, I wish I could have had a ZR-1 and ran the 345/35/18s in the rear. That would be cool!

no pics, since I have ZR1 fakies.

But - my .02 cents - if money isnt an issue:

On C4's -

84-90 - AR Torque Thrusts are the best looking non-ZR1wheel
91-96 - Gotta go with Fiskes (but phew - they are pricey!)

Where did you find those Simmons wheels, Ron?
I bought them from Group A Wheels which is the Simmons importer in the US. These are custom made in Australia.

The guy to talk to over there is Jeff. His number is 480-813-4776, and they have a website at http://www.groupawheels.com/

Jeff is a terrific person to deal with. i was very impressed by the way that I've been treated there and would recommend him highly. If you do call, tell him that Ron from Highland Sunoco in Ohio sent you.

Dave,

Do you have a better side profile of the car with those wheels? They look great from the pic that you posted.

Ok we need to lock this thread. There are way to many pics of cars that came right off the jack and never got to settle. :U I know you guys are in a hurry to snap pics of you new wheels, but have some pride, no one wants to see a 4X4 vette. You know who you are, get help. :jester
