$7000 out the window :( Look what im getting :)

Today at carlisle, I stopped over at west coast corvettes. A half hour and $7K later, and soon I will be cruising on these!



Click for a much larger picture. Not dial-up friendly!

19X9.5 inch front and 20X11 inch rear high-polished wheels with new tires too. Excuse the crude photoshopping and old out-dated picture, but what do you think?

No offense if you have the chromed z06 wheels, all of them are beautiful, but it is a little too common for me.

How will it look?
Is it worth the price?

$5500 Wheels
$1500 Tires

Those wheels are very nice, especially if you ge them in a black center and a polished lip. i saw a viper and it was something id love to do, but no money for look good mods.. all out on performance.

I don't like those rims at all...I think the regular z06 rims are just right for the car.

Apparently common sense doesn't factor into this. $5500 for wheels and $1500 for tires is just insane!

Is that a photoshop modded picture? The wheels don't look right at full size.

Honestly, that price is outrageous. My CCW's were $3650 out the door (tires AND wheels).

I believe it is Photoshopped....the calipers are on the wrong side of the rotor.

Ditto

Did the price include moving the rotor mounting positions?
