Nice Ride I have had mine since Dec, 2010 and it still brings a smile to my face every time I get behind the wheel.

Congrats on the anniversary. Coming up on six years with mine (in September). Sure doesn't seem like that long.

I love that 'raised white letter' look on your tires, with those wheels.
Awesome!

I think that's the first C5 I've seen with white letters on the tires. I kind of like it

Just passed my one year anniversary. I really like the raised white letters, brings me back to my youth when they wee very common on sports/muscle cars.

Couple months past my 8th year. Congrats on the Anniversary. They go by quick so enjoy it as much as you can. Love the white letters. I just purchased some Nitto's for my truck. Would you be willing to share where you bought them from so I can get some for it? PM me the info if you don't mind. I think I read a post about you installing them but can't remember off hand.

Looks great!

After driving mine for 15 years, I can say "Black Vettes Matter!"...
