What do you think is the nicest rim for the C4 Vette?
Please post your picture if you have some.

I always loved those wheels on your 87 Lars. Weren't they Folgers?

I love many offerings by Fikse, HRE & CCW; I am just not made of money, so I wait until something breaks, then blow a wad on what I really want. Right now, I love me some HREs...

I am okay with my Black Chrome ZR1s, I love the look. I just know they weight a lot more than they should, and that is not good for performance.

I believe in the Beer Fairy

I'm not a fan of the Fikse wheels myself...I prefer something like one of these...

Oh boy, another rim thread. Must be number 2,345,863. I'm in!

Not the coolest. That would be the Fikse FM5. Anything that came off a C4, C5, or C6 is just boring, unless somebody has a pic with the new C6 Z06 Spider Wheels. I do love the setup Lars has. I am, however, one of the first to to post with the AR TT II's.
