Looks great, I have been planning a complete garage makeover myself sometime this year. I like how your floor turned out and I almost purchased the same tile at lowes but I was afraid they would not hold up over time. Keep us posted on how it is holding up. I hope others that have done the same self stick tiles can let us see how well thier have held up as well. Perhaps using HD glue will help and Im sure a sealent would not hurt to promote long life.
Your tiles look like 6 inch squares when you compare to the tags and tail light of your vette. I think I will put 4 tiles together to create 2 ft black and white squares on my floor.
Looks great!!

Your garage looks awesome. Ive used these tiles in my rentals, and I must warn you that my experience has not been so great in the long run. The heat/cold seems to make them seperate. You might want to put some carpet under your tires. The hot tires after a drive might cause the glue to lift. Just my .02. Nice work

now get a good quality sealer to use on the tile and it will help seal up the tile seams

thats probably a good idea, I did the same thing last year with the same tiles, I only had 1 tile that came a little loose over the winter, actually it happened in the spring, probably from the condensation. I have a friend that has little "corvette" decals that I put on mine, if you are interested just PM me and I can hook you up with some, here are a few pics, I think they look cool

Could you explain that further. I don't understand.
Wife's Side???
Ok, I just looked it up. It seems that in some rare instances, a wife has been seen parking a car in the garage. Even rarer, some cultures even dedicate a side for their spouse. That's just weird!
Oh yeah, floor looks great
Let us know about long term use on the vinyl.

It actually comes in a double roll. Call them, they shipped fast. Also, it was the best buy on the net. $10.00 a roll (30 ft) on sale. Also, the paint took not quite one gal of the red, two coats. I also used a light pink tint (Kilz) under coat. I estimate that I did the entire garage (floor, walls, trim) for about $250.00.
