fine by me Nick! well will make your car look sweet!!!
as for the wheels being awful.......? how can you not like a mesh wheel? i love the car.......it doesnt have stock Z06 wheels like every other origional vette owner, or some plain jane 5 spoke wheels. but like was said previous you cant please everyone.

Honestly, I would prefer Z06 wheels to those. They just don't go with the car IMO. They look like they should be on a Chrysler 300 in the hood. To each their own. I'm sure they are atleast a quality wheel.


I really just hate chrome.

I like the wheels, they look to be i-forged or hre? Neither of which are cheap. The only problem is they make the stock brakes look puny and the ride quality has to be horrible on city streets.

On the topic of z06 wheels, what is with all of the c5 z06 wheels around with the rivets? Nothing cheesier than fake multi piece wheels imo.

those are asanti 2 piece wheels.......19s up front 20s out back......and i believe z06 brakes.........suprisingly ive drive that car alot and took it to work.....in cudahy and it rides extremely well for being lowered with the wheels and tires and stops very good too.

Good job Guy, oh wait, I was there when you detailed the car.

Mike, I don't see how you think the wheels don't go with the car and paint, they go together like cake and frosting. I'm not a big fan of Vette's, but this is a tight ride ladies and gents.....

You should get Nicks car and mine together for some shots if you can fit us into your busy schedule...:durr

Don't get me wrong, the car is hot. Just not feelin the wheels. But like I said, not a huge fan of chrome anyways.

although i spent alot of money and time on the honda i just really needed a change. i had the car for 6 yrs besides i dont wanna be drivin a 600hp honda around when i get to be 30. a corvette is more of a logical car for the future and will hold its value alot better than a honda will. the car was really fast and fun, but now its time to make something rwd faster!

Like I told you the other day you fuking scum bag you made the right decision to get outta the Civic. I remember when you first got that damn thing and I wanted to puke, but big D had the say. You made one hell of a car out of it in time.

Im proud of you boy!:headbang
