i kind of like how the fronts sit in a little more though, i like the look it gives it to compliment the rears i guess idk, kinda has a drag style set up or similar at least...

i just wish the front offset was the same as my original ZR1s. the 56mm offset puts them a little deeper in the fender. maybe someday ill put some spacers up front to push them back out...

there are 38mm offset ZR1 knockoffs available.

they look sick. everyone loves mine when they see em!

how are those sumis doing for you? i ran them on my 9.5" ss rim, but ive only had the MT ET streets since i went to the 315s

Here is a pic of my center caps with the vette badge removed. i just pulled them off and used some carb cleaner to get the goop off....
i wish my SS center caps would have been the same color silver so i coulda used them....

I'm gonna be ordering a set of these rims this weekend. I just can't decide if I should get those sumi's mounted or order some other tires and pay to get those mounted. Decisions decisions. I bet these will look good on my pewter SS

nice set of wheels, love that deep lip.
Where did you get that grill? Did you paint it or buy it in black?

mine were staying on, i just hated pressing the edges down just to have them pop back up again so i just ripped em off. im sure they would have stayed on a while cause the glue was pretty sticky, but it looked like crap to have the ends sticking up.....
