Racing Style Wheels
I love the racing style wheels that they use in the ALMS and other series. Like the Fiske wheels in these links.

I see them on C5's quite a bit, but I've never seen any on a Stingray though. Is there a reason for this?? I know they're expensive, but people on this forum are always dropping large amounts of cash for a little individuality.
You guys think they'd look good on a Stingray? Specifically an 82' C.E. Stingray?

I LOVE those wheels. I plan on putting them on my car sometime in the future. They are just plain cool :cool: . I found this '76 with them. This is one of my favorite C3's I have seen.

Those Kodiaks in the sizes I want would be over $2000 too. Try this: http://shop.sportruck.com/bcodd/tuned.htm They have the look. I dunno if they have the same build quality as a race wheel, although Boyd seems to have a pretty good name!

Re: Racing Style Wheels (patsnitrovette)
I'm actually either going to go with Rodder 5 or Timeless 5s from Boyd from that website (both of which are sported by members of this forum ;-) ). I like the racing wheels too... if I get a dedicated set of racing wheels some day, I might consider those, or might go for the "real thing".
