oh man looks good i like those wheels....but i think they look small cus they look like the same size (17's) all the way around if im not mistaken....you shoulda got 18's on the back...thats the way Vettes are stock and it really fits and looks good on our are cars as well (IMO)...my car currently is sporting Y2k C5 wheels..17's up front 18's out back...

also i would take the clear lenses off on the side bumper markers...they look better stock red man, esp with are huge red taillights the clear on the back looks out of place its a T/A...not my friggen Prelude LOL.....clears on the front look better than the yellows tho id leave those
