Default Extreme Widebooty Black ZR8X Convertible

This is the wider (+3" on each side) in the rear, and the +1.5" up front... gives it a nice old school flare look...

Looks very nice.

What wheels/offsets/tires did you have to use to go with this kit?

Sorry, looks like a "dually" Corvette to me. But I can understand why some folks would like it.

Looks a little odd when you look at the rest of the car and then the wide body parts.

Did you have to change the studs for longer ones with that spacer?

Yeeeaah. Gotta agree with these guys. Bigger is not always better. The concave wheel idea may look better with black wheels. Looks good from the side but head on...just a little too wide.

You're right .....those flares do look a lot like the "old school" C3 road race flares on the L88 race cars.
