Default New wheels with pics!
Added a set of chrome saw blades wheels on my 95 vert. Wanted to keep the original style wheels because the car is 100% stock with only 45k miles on her. Just wanted a little cleaner look. What do ya'll think?

Oh Yeah, very nice.
Your driveway looks so short, you must have to wash half of the car at a time and then turn it around!

Default I like chrome also!
They look good on dark colors.

The origonal owner in 1994 removed the stock sawblades, etched them for ID then sent them from Hendrick Chevy in SC to California to be plated! The first owner kept every shred of info including the letter to the plater. Past history made for interesting reading. He was ahead of the times I guess as now you can buy plated sawblades from Ecklers or others. He kept mine for 18 years and put on 17000 miles!

No not bad, I have a garage in the back of my house with a driveway that goes around the side. All the detailing is done back there. The front garage is just where I park her at night!

Your wheels look good! I have the stock alloy sawblades and would like to get mine as shiny as yours. Did you send them out and have them done or did you do them yourself. If you did do them yourself, would you please share with me how you did them.
Many thanks,
Tommy
