Here's a new game... Post up pics if your Corvette is really just an excuse to buy parts!
I'll start things off... I was cleaning my garage today and discovered that I have 10 spare wheels for my C5Z. What was I thinking? Lol.

Can't say I have that many extra wheels for my car, but I have kept all the original parts that I took off when I modded the engine bay, interior and exterior of the car (all appearance mods). If I ever sell the car, I will put it back to stock and then sell the mods.

Haha great questions.
The bottom row is a set of chrome repro's that came with my car. I just took them off because I bought a set of 18/19 Cup wheels.
The second row from bottom left/right side are Alcoa rears I picked up hoping to assemble a set of 4 rears.
The wheels without tires are a set of Alcoas. 2 front, 2 rear. I bought these so I'd have 4 rears total.
I'm holding onto the Alcoas for a while. They're not for sale yet, sorry.

Hmmm, that's quite a collection, and here I thought the set of Mallett wheels I have lying around is too much. I think it's safe to safe you have enough wheels for a few lifetimes with that C5.
