Five minute P02 makeover - what do you think?
Hello all, I came across a set of P02 hubcaps and thought I'd try them out. What do you think? Only took a few minutes to give the car a different look. I imagine they'd look much better with Redline tires against the red paint, but I think that would take lot longer than 5 minutes to switch out.

After:
And here's a few more just because:
I switched out the hubcaps already as they need a good detailing. What do you all think? Also, I've been off the forums for a while as I've been in San Francisco, and just settled. Anyone recognize the skyline in the background? I moved here two weeks ago. Glad to be back with the Corvette!

That's a great looking '72. The torque thrust II's look so much meaner. I'm not sure if I like the P02 look or not on my car just yet. I think I'll just change them out every once in a while for a different look.

For what little effort it takes, that's a nice option for a different look.

I used to call those "stunt" hubcaps. When I was a kid, I had a battery powered toy car that had wheel centers that stuck out so you could lean the car against them and do stunt driving on 2 wheels. The look reminded me of those hubcaps. It's just dumb stuff I remember as a kid.

my 70' coupe came with PO2's, i didn't really care for them, and i changed them out for rallys also..i think they look better with my BFGoodrich Radial T/A's..a little more sporty. Even though the PO2's were optional upgrade, they still look like base hubcaps to me.
