Have the lowering bolts on the back...need to crank them down a bit and try to lower the front on the stock bolts, or remove them entirely.

I think I have found my new wheels.
They look awesome on the Mag Red II Vette.
Thanks for posting.

The chrome does look awesome w/mag red. I really like the lighting in your last pic. Did you replace runflats? If so, your comments please on any difference you notice. Thanks

I did replace the runflats. I haven't put enough miles on the new tires to really tax them yet, but first impressions......The new ones are much quieter. Seems to ride smoother also ( probably from the runflats rigid sidewalls). Think I'll invest in a plug kit and mini compresser!
