Finally got my C5 Corvette wheels on, back tires are the wrong size for now but I'll just burn them off and get the 275's next time...Tell me what you guys think!

 

Looks good but definitely needs a drop now, 2" drop all around would make it look even better

 

Nice wheels bro.

 

Yeah, I love the look of the lowered Camaro's on Corvette rims, but I'm worried I'm gonna wreck up my front valance, because it's a daily driver. but I'm not sure yet.

 

Here's mine lowered a bit. Paint coming soon!!

 

nice! what car are the door handles from? and how hard is it to do?

 

That does look good, did you use eibach lowering springs or what?

 

I'd get a set of TA or IROC springs and cut half a coil from them and you'll be all set. Here is my TA with 1/2 coil cut...




I cut 3/4 coil on the front of my IROC and that is almost too much IMO.

 

that door handle looks great, i wish i had the body work skills to pull that off! And ninety-one's and 1meanz's cars look great too!

 

My springs are not rs springs they are 89 ws6 springs, i replaced them last year (rs springs were way sagging and too soft IMO) So I kinda would rather buy some lowering springs than cut mine. But I'm afraid of poor ride quality associated with the lowering springs. My buddy has a 2000 Z28 with summit lowering springs and it rides horrible, I hate being in the car, so I just wanna make sure I retain ride quality because it's a daily driver now, and ride is pretty important to me.

 

I have WS6 springs also. About 3/4 coil cut off of the front, I have a LS6 so the front weight is less. 1 coil cut off of the rear. It rides and handles good to me. It's very firm but I like it. Tires play a BIG part in ride quality. I also have the WS6 sway bars 36/24mm. It's also a daily driver during good weather.

 

The door handles are from a mid 90's Cadillac. The drivers side is from a front door( has the door lock in it). The pass side door handle is from a rear door. It wasn't THAT hard for me, but I've been a metal fabricator in a race car shop for 25 yrs. Placement in the door is critical, when you get in there you'll see what I mean. Dean.

 

My Trans Am with 1/2 coil cut all around rides and drives like stock. It is smooth, comfortable, and doesn't bottom out.

 

Nice wheels, just needs a drop now.

 

I like the look, but like everyone else has stated, you need to drop it a bit. I went with Eibach Prokit on my 91 and I'm running vette wheels as well.
