What I've done to my Corvette so far
Well I finally got to do a little bit of mods to the old girl. I added GS rims 19x12 rears & 18x10 fronts, wow I can't believe how good it looks like a whole different car. I also added the BB exhaust, love it sounds like what to me it should like. Near future will be CAI and am thinking a live tune.

Good looking car but do the wheels/tires stick out past the wheel well opening? Just curious since those are much wider wheels than stock.

Thank you. I know the rear nice and fat love it. yes stock height around here am better off I scrape now as it is. The tires are Nitto Invo 325/30/19 & 275/35/18. No rubbing at all. The rear has about 1/2" clearance from rubbing in the inside. The front has about 1/4" from rubbing on the front it's self but no rubbing at all.

Thank you. They stick out about 1/2". My near future plan is rear fenders with the 2" flare and a 1" spacer on the rear. The front is flush, just the rear that barely sticks out. I however like it just like it is, but I am thinking about the above mods in the future. I do also like the 2" flare with the 1" spacer.

However, the car needs to be lowered a bit and the wheels looks like they stick out past the fenders a tad. Stock offset GS rims I'm assuming. Add some C6 Z06 style splash guards and it won't be as noticeable.

The color of the wheels is almost a perfect match for your car, very cool!

You may still want the splash guards to protect the fresh paint on those wide fenders
