Got outside pictures with rims!


I had a crimped Trans cooler line, so I cut it out and put rubber line just till I get it to buddys shop in spring to put new flared lines on it.
And well even with a clamp, it did not like the psi I guess :shock: Looks like it needs a tampon haha
Went to go for a little rip and see how she runs, made it to front of units and the red death juice kept on pouring out lol, got it back inside storage and I'll fix it later heh.
Regardless, some outside pic's with new wheels :

Those rims look amazing on that car! Did you need spacers? And what kind of corvette had them on it?

Also, still looks like it needs to be lowered! About 1-2" would be perfect.

Re: Got outside pictures with rims!

Do you get hassled about your tint? How much % tint is it? I will be painting my car white this spring, and yours is a pristine example of the look im trying to accomplish.

It was tinted when I got it, and IDK %, but never been hasseled.

Thanks! I love the look, not flashy, just clean and simple.
