Default Sawblade "looks"

Here is a sampling of different sawblades that I have seen over the years. Some are rather interesting. Post yours too!

I've never much cared for the sawblade wheels, but those look mighty sharp. Good to see somebody found a way to really make them trigger something more than a yawn from me. Very tastefully done.

Be well,

You can buy Chevy stick-on emblems for wheel center caps. In this case, someone used them on their fender. (Corvette Mike's and other wheel retailers should have them in stock. I think they run about $10 ea.).

Yes, everything you see is stock from the factory. It's the rear wheel from a '93 40th anniversary ZR-1 (note the deep center). The center caps are the "Ruby Red" 40th anniversary versions and only came on the Ruby Vettes.

Here's my dedicated drag radial rims. Painted the centers black so they at least looked similar to the GS rims when I go to the track.

That's a ZR-1 rear wheel. 17"x11" It has a deep center lug section.
