Would have went with some Chrome Skinny Spoke rims, but that's just me. Car looks good, any MODS?

What took you so long? I changed to the Y2K Chromies. Wagons hide too much of the rotors and calipers. Nice looking FRC!

I have Crome Wagon Wheels and I like them. I think they look better then the thin wheels or the Z06 wheels that look like wagon wheels with the center of the spokes nocked out.

I still like my wagon wheels, too - although mine are chrome.

Your car looks great - the Z06 replica wheels and the thin spokes are very popular because they look good on the cars. I'd rather be a little different and not have my car look like everyone else's!
