Thanks for your responses, mostly positive, there are some negative, but some of them can get something positive, as I believe in a color so bright might not very good looking, maybe is better in other slightly duller, and yes I think the wheel is this; WORK LS305, The others from stock SRT8 Charger, also looks good...to me
Good on you OP! It's your car and none of us has to like what you do to it.And good on you Stroker87 for finding the wheels the OP asked about.
Joking, hazing, honest opinions, they're all here.
OP just remember like any club/group there are some who think that if you don't do the same as they, then you just ain't a Corvette person. Plus your Corvette will blow up, fall apart or just plain melt. So beware. To them, maybe your just not Corvette material.
Now OP, just ask about oil, brake pads/rotors, wax/polishes, gasoline, tires oh and probably shift ***** too. If you survive that you'll be a veteran. Just remember you have to do the same or you ain't cool.
Oh, mandatory disclaimer: I'm not speaking to anyone in particular or this forum specifically or Corvettes. Just an opinion on group behavior. YMMV

with all that said this is a great place to find info about your car and any problem that you might have, the forum has helped me a great deal saved me a bunch of heartache and money too
main thing is just enjoy your car and do what you like!

Wheel choice evoke some playful banter, but if you read between the lines.. some people do express their opinion, in a hazing sort of way. The thing here is, people can be very opinionated about their C5, or C5's in general... no different than any other generation Corvette passion. Some people feel entitled to offer their opinion, whether is was requested or not... If someone likes something, they can say so, they can also offer an honest opinion, in the form of a hazing event.... The worst thing that I see here is that many people will sugar coat their opinion tell the person what they want to hear, then laugh at them for their choice behind closed doors. I'm all for the honesty aspect, If I like them, I will say so, If I don't, I will also say so. At least my opinions are honest and from the heart. Honesty, be it positive or negative only validates my opinion...When I like something, you can take that to the bank as being and honest opinion, not some sugar coating that disguises my true feelings.
Over my time here, I've seen both types of people ( newbies ) ones that just want to be stroked and told what they want to hear.. then there or the others who appreciate the honesty.. and are willing to thank those of us who are honest, and willing to say ( What was I thinking " )... IM so happy I didn't waste my money on a poor choice.
