Looks like you mean business!

Looks good, and I know why you changed the rims, the Z06 brakes won't fit under the CCW classics without sticking out past your fenders.
That's why I'm doing a complete widebody so that I can use my CCW classics.
Still an AAA++ job Noumi.

About the choice of wheels.
With the racing (HPDE) background, I have always loved racey looking wheels. C14 were the ONLY wheels I was going to replace my CCW Classic streets with. Personally, I hate chrome and bling. Trust me the pictures DO NOT do the wheels justice. The car has absolutely no soft side to it. If you heard it in person or line up next to it, you will know what I mean
I wanted to go again with CCW as its the best company when it comes to wheels and customer service. Yes, I have dealt with HRE, IForged and some other companies in the past. Infact, I have lost count of how many sets of wheels and tires I have had on this car Small world but a few people have actually replied in this thread who have bought my IForged Aeros, CCW Classics and HRE 545Rs
It was not an easy decision but I am ecstatic with the final outcome. My car is exactly how I wanted it to be. I think I will draw less attention with the new wheels than I did with Classics though
To all who asked what I did with my previous wheels, they were sold to another forum member here for a very good price and I think they look extremely sharp on his Black FRC. Those who PMed me about the cost of the new setup with brakes, please call John or Chip directly. These wheels start at $2600 and anodizing, powdercoating, widths etc are extra options and then you need tires of your choice. I would strongly suggest getting the entire package mounted and balanced at CCW as they have the best equipment to do so.
Peter Pan, I will let you know the details on Tial BOV over MSN. Too much to type here
Once again, all the compliments are appreciated.

Astounding!
Perhaps your next round of mods will include: a hood seal, a chrome-plated Porter Cable with a dizzying array of pads, bonnets and other waxer-nirvana must-haves, a Zaino distributorship -- and last but not least: monogrammed Lloyd's mats (free shipping always available).

Stunning!!! She's a real beauty with some awesome extra power under the hood to boot! And, the glossy black wheels are a striking compliment to the Torch Red exterior. Well done!!!
