What Do You Think Of These Rims?
Hey guys,i want to see what you guys think of these rims on my vette.
I originally bought them for my 79T/A that im building but i tried them on the vette.
Front=18x8
Rear=18x10
Also,does anyone make a drag radial tire in 18"?
Looking for a 315 rear drag for 18" rim.
What do you think?
Also,car sits high in pics because it was just lowered off jack.Car actually sits lower.

I really like those. They are my favorite type of rim. Im still not sure if the looks go well with the c4 corvette though. Where did you get those? $$??

Thanks.
They are boyd coddington smoothie II.
They are about $1500 for the set without tires.
The car does sit lower then in pic.I had just lowered it from jack.I should have rolled the car some before taking pic to get it to sit down.

A tad too blingy for me. If you like them that is all that matters.

Can I use the word, SNAZZY with out getting beat up?
I really like them! How far do they stick out at the back?
ZR1's are nice but a little overdone, I like yours better. And I don't think it is to much bling. Its a corvette for crying out loud. All people are going to do is stare. After a while you will start thinking you have a booger hanging out of your nose withall the people looking and pointing. Just to be safe check the mirror once in a while.

They kind of remind me of the old Cragar SS mags from the early seventies. If they were 17X11's in the rear I would like them a lot better. Nice looking rims though. I would put them on my car.
