Those must be some really light wheels, they let you drive upside down!

I've always liked those wheels on a C4 and I think they go really well with the silver.

You're turning the C4 Corvette world upside down.

The C5 Z06 wheels look good.

Those wheels do look very good on a C4. There are several around my area with them so I think it is one of the more popular swaps.

I'm just the opposite! I have the Z06 wheels and just bought ZR1 Detroit polished wheels (841-7961P) for my '93 Ruby. Too much chrome and gaudy look for me.

I've personally never been fond of putting C5/6/7 wheels on C4s. All those wheels were larger diameter and just don't think they look era correct on C4s plus they are heavy.

Aaahhh, now you can see just how good they look on your silver Corvette when it's in the correct position.

i find any upgrade over stock c4 rims is an improvement in the car.

Yours looks really good.

I like your OEM Z06 wheels a lot better than the chrome reproductions like my '96 CE had them when I bought it.
