Even tires that fit even with the lip 'correctly' still leave wheels to be curbed. Not all brands have curb protectors INCLUDING the OEM runflats.
Drink your Metamucil and calm down. I think you've stated your opinion by now.

All I'm sayin is...I hope you aren't gonna run some puss *** ride height. Stretching requires stance otherwise it looks ridiculous.
I personally have always leaned to function stance versus hellaflush standard but...that said...I'd rather see some young flavor than this chrome crap with GS stripes on both fenders, the seats, the back quarters, the roof...wherever else. Old guys.....killin me...

Haha, kind of funny isn't it? Everyone here seems so scared to try anything that is slightly outside of the box.

I think a lot of it has to do with perception of the Corvette as an "elite" automobile. The c5 in it's hay day was not always affordable to the younger generation, and purist would never dare to go outside the box with any trends observed as "young" or "ricer." Obviously things have changed since c5 is readily affordable to a teens in college now a days, and that opens our cars up to new ideas. As for me...if it looks good, and doesn't affect performance adversely I like it! If it's cheap chrome stick on's from pep boys, welllll you can expect internet verbal ridicule lol
By the way, I couldn't lose on this deal as my back up plan was putting wide fenders out back if they didn't work out as they ddi
