Default 2001 SS...Cleaned up

Hello everyone. My goodness, the weather up here in the Pacific Northwest has been GREAT lately. It was in the lower 60's today and it was warm enough to clean the SS and drive around w/the t-tops off. This time last year I was stationed up in North Dakota freezing in -30 degrees; what a difference. Anyhow, my ZR1's got blemished during my drive up here from ND. Somehow while riding on the trailer and going through some snow they got "weathered". I couldn't fix them; so I sold them off. I purchased these 01 Z06 Alcoa Forged Rims from a CWO on Ft. Lewis for $700. It was a great deal considering they are in awesome shape; forged (not cast), and the tires have 90% tread left. And yeah, sucks about the front license plate, but I don't have a choice. So anyhow.....










Take care everyone.

Looks great! Is it just the pictures or does your rear sit a little lower than the front?
