Default New CCW SP500s!

I was randomly searching Craigslist, hoping by chance my dream wheels would be for sale. I had little hope and I rarely check it but low and behold I found a set for a spectacular price. I couldn't pass it up and picked them up this past weekend.

CCW SP500s
Fronts are 18x10 - 275/35/18
Rears are 19x11.5 - 305/30/19

They're mounted on Nitto Invos - rears will need to get replaced next year and I'll be throwing a pair of RE-11's on 'em when the time comes

Oh! I don't know how many posts it takes to make a FS thread, but I do have a set of speedlines with nearly new Michelin Pilot Sports that would sure look damn sexy on a Camaro/Firebird/TA. Linky is here (if this is not acceptable per forum rules I will remove): http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-p...ot-sports.html

On with the pics:

Beautiful wheels man. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of deal did you get on them?

$2,400 - not a nick on them! Too good to pass up.

Depending on what your plans are, FRC's are a great car, but I do enjoy the higher-revving, higher hp LS6. The HUD is great too. I appreciate the compliment!

The 01-04 Z06 cars are FRCs also. Toss a cam and springs in the LS1 FRC and you can have even more fun than the LS6.

One of the best looking 5 spokes on a C5. Take very good care of them! Enjoy....

Obviously, but they're never referred to as FRC's. They're designated the way they are for a reason. We're not playing the 'add mods and it'll be more fun than X stock car' game either...
