Default Look what I just bought! Im excited!

I finally had the ***** to buy some wheels.
I bought these
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=290033980932


I think they would look bad *** on my car with the CETA bumper and blackbirdstripes(cardomain in the sig)

Im finally getting rid of my 16" wheels!

Those are nice. They will compliment the color. Post some pics once you get them on.

17" Z06's were a bad choice. 18's would look better.

i think 18s are too big, im not real big into the larger wheels on sports/muscle cars i think 17's look the best on a Fbody.

ya, well wheels look different in different sizes. My 17in tt2's look bigger then 17in z06's. 17in z06's look small. Should have got 18's, but at least you're getting rid of the stockers. if you want some cheap tires. i have 2 275/40/17's. they have ALOT of tread. but the inside are worn badly due to my shitty alignment. if you ever come near SA. I'll sell you both for $10 just so you'll have something to roll around on.

Good looking wheel.. Love the black and red scheme you will have going. But I don't understand the trend with rivets these days takes away from the clean design. And 17's are small for the size of our cars.

No way man don't take it that way. Nothing is wrong with 17's I think it mostly has to do with the size of our cars. 18's seem to size up better.
