Jims (Z06-Jim) Vette takes a lot of beating. Unfortunately I don't have a pic but here's a link:

Hey paul, those pics look nice, but come on man...what's with the "No Shine" look of the tires?

I don't think I could ever take a picture of my car without having some kind of Tire Shine on them. Other than that it looks great.

I can't wait to get my coilovers on so that mine will have that "down in the grass" look even without there being any grass around.

Coilovers will look sweet on your Vette. Some girl said my car looked lower than a lawn mower.

I have to admit I do not shine my wheels as offten as I should.
It was sunny and 80 today, the Sun was shineing

Thanks Arch,
