Dangdangdang those are def my favorite wheels! Were those the inventory clearance wheels from ADV? I kept getting an email with those but when I went to their site the sizes were 19" & 20" instead of the 19/19 combo listed in the email. Weird.

Anywho looks damn good man very nice job.

The new wheels look great on your car. Never heard of them before but I do like them now that I've seen them.

holy smokes that is a great looking black coupe. I love rims that have that look, split or 10 spokes that go all the way out to the edge of the wheel. Also pretty unique since it's very rare to see adv1's on vettes

Huge improvement over the black wheels. Car looks great. Looks like you have lowered it. I like how it sits.

They look awesome, are these the ones that were just for sale on the forum? Big fan of ADV1.

Also, is there a huge chunk missing out of the sidewall of your Michelin? That doesn't look safe, unless it's a lighting/camera thing tricking my eyes.

They look like a mix of the new Spyders and TSW Interlagos...

My exact thoughts. Those wheels seriously update the C5 look in a great way! Stance is perfect too!

Congrats
