Very nice...you know, you can lower the Vette on your stock bolts a little bit. That might make the wheel gaps a bit less noticable. Otherwise a perfect Vette! Indy

My next "summer" mod. I will be putting bigger tires on also. I swapped these wheels/tires off my Camaro.

I did drive it after I washed it. I drove it back to the garage it's stored in, about 6 miles away! That's why the tires are dirty. (Thanks for the very nice compliments everyone).
