I installed my new wheels for the Zip Corvette's car show/customer appreciation day. They appreciated my credit card by the end of the day. I am working on a thrust adjustment, but completed the attitude adjustment for the first day out of the garage this year.

Love the new look..... Hate the "points"

Brian, What size wheels and tires did you go with?

I bought some Z06 style wheels (black w/machined face. Front-17x9.5 Rear-18x10.5) and went with the Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport tires (Front 265/40 Rear 295/35)....of course, the tires are on back order. :( I think they will look good, fingers crossed!!!

In other news, we took the car on a 640 mile trip this past week and averaged 30.7mpg!!!!!!!!!!! Hard to believe if I didn't see it with my own eyes....

265/35/18 front
305/30/19 rear

Freaked me out the first time I backed out of the garage and turned the wheel, as they rubbed a bit. But such was only because the suspension had not settled back down after being lifted. As soon as I drove the length of the driveway, no issues.

2nd box of go-faster parts showed up today; waiting on several more.

Thanks.... I should be OK!

I took the ZO6 out couple days ago, forgot how much fun that car was! Definitely a blast and a good deal can be had on the C6s.

Be prepared to receive some traffic violations...

Or just build one of these:

Got my tires....finally.... and had them mounted on the new wheels. The wider wheels and two size bigger tires fit with no issues. Much better ride than the 16 year old runflats!! :eek: I'm planning to put some exhaust on the car for a little better sound and be done with it. Runs more than good enough for what I need.

Although it's been established in another thread that the entire Corvette line is a POS, I still like mine!! LMAO. :rolleyes:

Those remind me of IROC rims from the 80s; love 'em!

I bought this hat today at Zip Corvette Parts.

It came with a free exhaust system. :D
