Six spoke vette wheels
The 87 Vette I just bought has new tires. On close inspection I noticed the rear wheels are on backwards. (Left side on right/right side on left). Is this a big deal?? The tires are in the right direction now so to correct the problem I would have to have the tires removed from the rims and changed, probably at my expense.
Thanks for the help.

My father's Vette had a pronounced shake at 80mph. He needed a new wheel bearing after 3k miles because of it. THe same time, with a new wheel bearing and tires switched, all set.

If it were me, for no other reason than looks, I would get them corrected. Did you buy the car locally? If so, you may be able to get the prev owner to go to the tire shop with you to get corrected at n/c. At any rate, I'd change them.
