Default may be getting rims for free!!

Hey I'm really excited so I just had to share! I may be getting some c5 corvette wheels 17" and 18" with the thin 5 spokes in silver for free! The story is that my boss bought his son (who just turned 16) a 95 z28 m6 with all bolt ons pretty much i think. When he bought it I told him it would be wrecked within the first month. It turns out i was wrong he wrecked it after 4 days!! supposedly one of his friends passed him and he floored it to get back and the back end came around and he ran into a parked car. so I asked my boss if i could swap the wheels and tires from our cars and he says ok we can probably do that. I offered to give him a little cash because he would be getting the ugly (in my opinion) stock 16" 'swirl' formula wheels. he refused and said he wasn't looking to make any money. So basically because my boss and his son are idiots i get free corvette wheels

I don't know if I'd call your boss an "idiot" seeing how you work for him and he's nice enough to trade you the wheels for no money.

trust me. I'm a mechanic and he is the service manager at our shop. The only thing he knows how to do is change oil. Most of the time when i find something that needs to be fixed he has no idea what i'm talking about.Usually it takes me 15 minutes to explain the parts I need and then he stills screws it up. it's very frustating.

yea, i would've been dead at 16 with my M6 LS1. I got mine when i was still only 17. Even then i realized that i would've totalled it at 16. I'm 19 now and finally have the respect for the power.

But wow sweet *** deal on the rims!! Maybe i should post up a similar offer in the parts wanted section. --- Will make even trade - stock 16" Z28 rims for your TT2's!!

my first car was a 95 Z28 that I bought for 4500 my dad helped me he gave me 1000 on top of my money, and I didn't wreck it, I sold it and bought a 99 T/A when I was 17 and after 1 payment on it a 19 year old girl T-boned me going 50 when I was turning... but all my friends when they were 16 got some nice *** cars and wrecked them after a month...
