New Wheels

The man in the brown truck just dropped off a set of chrome Z06 wheels for my white on white 98 6 speed vert. I went with 18s all around. I should have the Bilsteins friday. This weekend on go the shocks and Z06 sway bars. I still need to decide what tires to run - 265x35x18 front and 295x35x18 rear. I'm running Kuhmo's on the stock wagon wheels now which is my only reference. Looking at the BFG T/A KDW 2. Is anyone running these?

Thanks to Chris and Nate at Corvette Garage.

I was wondering if the Z06 sway bars were a direct swap or did they come with mounting hardware good luck!!

Just don't go with the Yokohama AVS Sports! They look cool but are worthless under hard acceleration. Just my $.02.
