Default Forgeline VX3Cs with trans smoke centers and polished lips

Bob was the first Corvette enthusiast to really see my carbon fiber kit on my C7 when I pulled into the NCM Bash last spring. We carried on quite the conversation about what all I'd done and I knew he and I would get along well. Bob followed up and had me order some hot wheels for his C7 before his Z51 was even in yet! These turned out great against his blade silver C7 with shark gray accents instead of the carbon flash!



Here is Bob's C7 and Bob's thumb





Almost look like black centers in this pic, but that would look good too

Looks good. What sizes are the wheels and tires?

They're 19x9 and 20x11 with the very wide Michelin 305 Super Sports on them. These tires are actually nearly as wide section width and have a wider tread width than the Toyo R888 315s!

Thanks for the reply. Do you think a 325 on a 11.5" 0r 12" wheel would fit and still tuck? On the rear only.

Absolutely, it's all in the offset. I have 375s on mine They're really a 365mm based on the 14.4mm sec width but that is a max scenario for 21" wheel.
