Those are the most funky wheels ever to grace a Corvette next to the early C5 wheels.
Sorry dude but

sell them ***** on ebay, someone with an 84 corvette probably would buy them.

its one thing to get wheels from a newer car, but usually when you get wheels from an older car it looks like pure T ***. i like the lt1 vette wheels on fbodys but those suck.

way gay - get rid of them immediately. Are those early 80's vette wheels???? Totally out of place on your car. Doesn't look muscular at all.
