In the sig pic those are c5 z06 rims. I got rid of those, and now have ZR1's on them yes.

I'm about to post some newer pictures of the car soon. Just been waiting on doing a few minor things to it that the weather has been preventing me from finishing. Should all be done this weekend.

Awesome I'd love to see it. I just bought some ZR1's for my car except I'm waiting on tires now! Going to throw the tires on at my shop when I get them & get these new shoes on the car!

Alright so I think the weather is going to be holding up now. Who wants to set something up for April 5th? It's a Friday.

The temperature will still be below 80° on April 5th, so I think you should stay indoors. I could see the icicles hanging from your ears on Saturday.
