Poor vette, its so weighed down with those heavy wheels and all that audio equipment, a camry could probably pull on it on the highway. A sad fate for such a great sports car.

You are right. C5s do not look right on 22's. I've seen some c6s with 22's in the back and 20s in the front and they look great, but this is just ****in stupid
