I thought it might look okay, but after seeing the pic posted I changed my mind.

Dude, your car looks great. I love those particular wheels on that shade of silver, and I'm not much of a silver lover. It looked stunning in person when I saw it.
What size wheels and rubber are you running?

Whatcha' smokin', Joe?
Actually, I saw a MY coupe with black BSM's one day and I almost had a wreck when I
all over the windshield.
And I was in my Mustang . . .

Hey Mike thanks...
Fronts: rims 18x10 w/ 275 - 35
Rear: rims 18x11.5 w/ 335 - 30
I agree, on a silver vette these wheels look the best. I shopped for 6 months before deciding on these.

Yea, it's getting time for a new one... just remember, you can pick your friends and you can pick your nose... but you can't pick your friends nose.

After reading this post I would say A) you're a very lonely man or B) you didn't get much attention growing up.

It is a matter of taste, or a matter of tastelessness...
The car looks nice without body side moldings.
BSM have kept my car ding free
The BSM look ok in the matching color..
I would not like them in a color other than the base color of the car.
Drawing attention to them would be like circling a zit on your face with a magic marker.
Just an honest opinion.. please forgive me Boatman.

Hi Joe! Did you finally decide to come back to the dark side?
Regarding your question... I think it might give a MY Vette a "bumble bee" look. I don't think it would look good on a TR either. IMHO.
