Wheel decisions
What's happening friends
I have been out of the 3rd gen game for about 18 years and now that I have stepped back into GMs lower priced corvette I am excited.
I have a while before I can drive her BUT I can get the wheel and tire combo situated. Choices are:
1)zr1 17x9.5 in all black wrapped with 275 40 17s.
2)1998 C5 wagon wheels all 4 18x9.5 wrapped with 275 40 18s
powder coated in dark charcoal grey
I would absolutely love to have the factory mesh wheels however, the original wheels are too small for my next brake upgrade and the webbing is hard to see the brakes.
The TA is red with silver ground effects. If that helps

Re: Wheel decisions
18x9.5 with a 275 is a great setup, im just not a fan if the wagonwheels.
