Absolutely beautiful photos by D2Forged / My friends Car
Hey guys, I think my friend has one of the nicest C5's I have ever seen. We both run D2Forged wheels and they use our cars for photo shoots, here is his.
I know he has the D2Forged CV2 and his rear wheel is a 20x12.5 with L5 Flares:
This is what 20x12.5 and 345 tires look like:

Beautiful pictures! Your friend would benefit from some bigger brakes to go with those enormous wheels IMHO

You cannot beat a basic 5-spoke design...just never goes out of style, and there is no other wheel out there that is so easy to maintain. Talk to him about losing those BSMs....

Bugvx5, I agree man, there is a look that most corvette guys go for especially for the C5. It begins to become a uniform look that I am not a fan of.
Most new model cars come with much larger wheels and smaller tires and it looks great. I think my friend did a great job updating the look of his car to the point people no longer identify my car as the new vette and his the old. Now people just say look at those vettes.
