Nice wheel, but what are you going to do about the centercap, or more accurately, lack thereof? I personally don't care to see the axle ends on these cars. If you're using the wheels for the track though, it certainly wouldn't matter.

SSR wheels are very nice and very
in the import world, but strangely not popular in the vette world(excluding the GT3's). They are always usually the lighest wheels you can get at that price. However, when I had my DSM and was going to get these wheels I did some research and found out the bend very easily when combimed with low profile tires. Great for autocross and racing, but may not be great for DD street driving!good luck and post some pics when you get them installed!
