I liek this picture... the flag in the headlight is awesome
Sweet Ride !!! Blacked Out is a killer look on a Vette.
I've always owned a black car, but its a Camaro and I'll never get rid of it, lol !!
Nice vette but I honestly like the first set of rims.

Love the car, love the car even more with the wheels!!
WOW I love your new black rim look really better
DAMNIT!!!...i just came in my pants...

thanks guys.
Iv always wanted a full blacked out car. its beautiful in the sun when its clean... then as soon as you move it, its dirty
heres the killer deal. I got them for $565 shipped to my door from a vender off corvetteforum.com. Then I sold my stock ones for $250 and the buyer paid for shipping.
So they ended up costing me a lil over $300
They are actually the same wheels that are on the 2006+ ZO6, just in black

Not really feeling it, but to each his own
the wheels look awsome!
Im just not feeling the blacked out tails. Also if youre going for a blacked out theme (which i get the feeling you are) tint those windows darker!!! I say go 5% all around wiht a 50% on the windsheild. You'll love it!

All black looks killer!
That's one awesome vette right there!
BTW, lowering takes all of 20 minutes, should have done it when the wheels were off
But you don't have to take the wheels off to do it anyhow

Oh no, I do not have any more leafs
Full Pfadt suspension; race coils, pfatty bars and camber adjusters
But, I have lowered on stock bolts and it is VERY easy!

Find the end of each leaf, there you will see a bolt with either a 13mm or 15mm head
Tighten that bolt up to lower it, the bolts are reverse threaded
You can't miss them
Mine has a 402 LS2 with ported Dart heads, 252/248 cam, 95/95 FAST and some N2O now
Don't like it because now it looks like my buddies. But his is pushing 800~ RWHP without nitrous.
