Hi R,
Nice to see your car!
I guess I still like the look of the rally wheels with the Goodyears!
Regards,
Alan

I'm obviously a big fan of white.
Your car looks great with all the combinations, preference for me would be the Goodyears.
I'm a fan of the aggressive look of the third choice also (for those weekends at the track).

1-Whitelines
2-TAs (excluding the rims)
3-Goodyears (the micro lettering is an abomination)

#2! Looks like the old Polyglas tires. I like the track tires/rims too.

Awesome White Shark!!!

White Stripe or White Letter Good Years on the Rallies with Chrome Trim... both look great. In fact, I had the same question for mine and finally I put White Stripes in combination with the PO2 DeLuxe Wheel Covers on my white Corvette!

However, great, elegant looking Corvette!!!

Cheers...
René
