Default New wheels
Well, I got my new wheels installed yesterday at corvettes of houston. They look fantastic. While they had it on the lift I had them go ahead and drop it down as far as it would go on the stock bolts. That made for a drastic improvement as well. Anyhow a few pics. Let me know what you think.







some pics of the new FRC as well. These are the GM ones......LBM

Nice mod and looks great. I would be interested in a similar set. Who makes them and what is the offset for the fronts and rears?

Your car looks great!

It looks like you have an after market exhaust as well. If so, who did you go with and are you happy with it?

Thanks
