Have to say, not practical but it looks bad and I like it.

Ridiculous.

Form trumping function exponentially.

Your comment ' no need for that much tire', is ill informed, as that kit utilizes stock Z06 wheels with a 345/25 tire, also using crazy 3 1/2" spacers to kick the wheels out to fill the wells. SSVette makes the kit. .......photos snipped........

I am not a big fan of this extra wide body kit , but I do have a question . With the extra spacers needed to push the ZO6 tires out to fill the wheel wells , does the car handle better on a road course due to the widder stance ? Or , would there be a problem because the front tires are still at the stock width ? Any road racers care to educate this Corvette lover ? :)
Don't you think the Corvette Racing C6.R's would look more like this if it helped? |
I'm not a huge fan of the flared look anyway, but this wide widebody looks like 10 pounds of crap in a 5 pound bag. Awful!

Too fat for me.

Love It ! The Black one is hot. Spacers , Now thats a different story.

This is nothing new automotive wise. The same "effect" can be seen in the animal kingdom. Just look at what natural selection did to male peacocks. ...
Sometimes more really is too much. 3.5 inch spacers = ridiculous. |

There is absolutely no need for that much tire ever. Expensive + Ugly + Useless = Fial

To each his own, but I just can't see how it improves what was an awesome car to begin with. Reminds me of this silly automotive trend that seems to be everywhere.... http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_i...0939_large.jpg:lol::lol: |

I wouldn't necessarily say that. If I were going to go that wide it would be solely to run wider tires. The kit can "utilize" anything that will fit under there!

To coin a phrase commonly attributed to Big Daddy Don Garlits referring to HP:
If some is GOOD, and MORE is BETTER, than TOO MUCH is just RIGHT. Guess TOO MUCH is TOO MUCH. |
might as well just get one of these

Looks good to me...
Its cool if you simply don't like the look, but I find it very hypocritical that any one who drives a 400-500 HP, 180+ MPH street car would ridicule someone else about what *they* think is "excessive" or "unneeded" on the other person's street car. Glass houses... |
