The drop and stance have a huge impact also. I think I read somewhere that it's best to let the suspension settle before dropping tho so I'll wait.

That looks a lot better then I thought it would. I like an OEM look.

THIS was the first C8 I really liked the look of ( even after seeing one at the Chicago Auto Show in person). It's clear the wheels make a huge difference:

The wheels and the spoiler delete really enhance the the car.

It's a base, not Z51 with spoiler delete. But I agree. Losing the spoiler is key. The stance on that car is darn near perfect too.

Aftermarket folks should send GM Christmas cards - no idea what they were thinking on stock wheel designs

Think I like the first one up top, the blue one but would love to see a more straight on side shot of it.
