Mallet Wheels on C4
Has anyone seen any of the Mallet split spoke wheels on a c4? I'd like to see how good they would look if anyone knows where some pictures are.
What about a set of black powdercoat HRE 547's? Anyone know of any pictures of those on a C4?

Re: Mallet Wheels on C4 (ncider)
there was a fella here (who sold his vette not long ago) w/ those wheels on it - Mallet apparently hated the idea of those wheels on a c4 and he said they were going on a c5 ;) just to buy them ...or so the legend goes :nonod:

Person went by "Philtharush" or phil da rush and yes Mallet originally told him the wheels wouldn't fit, but he bought them anyway and they fit fine. Phil told me that later, Mallet included pic's of his car with the wheels in their catalog.
Phil is still lurking around here somewhere...put out a page or search on his forum name and you will get an e mail address. I am sure he would respond to your questions
Phil and I were bud, I am checking my e mail addresses

Re: Mallet Wheels on C4 (SurfnSun)
Either way you can get them from Extreme Motorsports here on the forum. They are the exact same wheel and way cheaper than Mallet.
