Buying a decent C4 Corvette in today's tough used car market is not as easy as it once was.
A few ideas. When you replacing tires you’ll need to swap wheels to opposite sides. The saw tooth rims rotate different than what your photo shows. Rims are factory stamped LF RR etc. tires are not to rotated. Bilstein shocks are a good 👍 option. Eliminating the mufflers are a great option for sound effects. Most Corvette retailers sell these pretty inexpensive options. Not sure if it affects smog or not. This greatly improves throttle response.
Aftermarket throttle body bolt on units are good as well.
Has your opti spark and water pump been replaced? If not, when you do replace, there are options on increasing performance etc.
