They look nice, but I wish they had tires on them. Can't wait to see them as this may be the route I will go as far as wheel choices since everyone has c5 Z06s and ZR1s

Everyone that has bought these for some reason hasn't mounted tires on them....It's like a chick getting naked then locking you out of her house....
