This two-faced Corvette isn't just a one-off, and can be replicated rather easily.

Not a look I would go for, but I will admit it is really a different way to go.

Not a Fan... Symmetrical look is better than an A Symmetrical one, IMO.

Default Great next level thinking

I think it is a very great idea to have a different look on each side. I am thinking about doing same style with different colors on each side with 2 different finishes of crosswinds so I can do multiple combinations and rotating looks everytime I do a oil change. Thank you Aerolarri for bringing this idea to the market at a huge value for real forge wheels.

But you know if a single car had arrived from the factory that way, troves would be having a hissy fit. My one question, does the license plate say Sybil?

I've seen one car on the street (not a C8) with different wheels on each side. It looked like crap. While these are nice looking wheels, the mismatched sides are terrible.
