Default C6 wheels on my SS
Well, Valentine's Day came a little early. Last night Tim brought my car home with new C6 wheels and tires, power slot rotors and the door trim removed. He'd taken my car last Monday and I hadn't seen it since last night.
It was already dark outside so i had to snap pictures in the garage. It's raining today so I cannot get any pics right now either

Here's what i took last night




a closeup of my hoodscoop decal I got for my B-Day


I have the best husband ever

That looks outstanding! You Texas gals sure have some generous husbands, or significant others.

Those wheels give you enough room to go with some huge rotor's if ya want to.

Having seen them in person I like them much more than I thought I would. Wasn't easy to make them work either.
