Did everyone see the baddest wheels for vettes?

I disagree completely. The way my vette sits right now...nothing would give me more ET. I could drop at least 1 second in the 1/4 mile if the tranny would hold.
The weight savings alone is a couple tenths.
Do you know what its like to launch a car with run-flats? Like driving on ICE.

Not trying to put words in your mouth, but aren't you are saying tires and a transmission fix would be much help alot more than lightweight wheels? You are making my point

I think pretty much ALL drag wheels look ugly as FAWK, but for drag wheels I guess those aren't TOO bad. I just much prefer the way a 18 or 19" street rim and low profile tire fills up the wheel well. Now before I get flamed, I FULLy understand the benefits and uses of one another.....just stating my opinion.

. I do understand driveline problems
. That is all beside the point though. Those wheels still look dang tough! Trending Topics
