Hey Zane, can I ask you how much those rims and tires cost? I'm looking to do the same soon. Also, is there a reason you went with 18's & 17's instead of two 18's or 2 17's?

I would have bought some sod instead!!! :lol: :lol:

16" & 17" is a nice improvement and does not take anything away from look of the C3. But "I THINK" anything more than a 17" wheel does not look right. The C3 is a sports/muscle car not a ............. Well put it this way, there is no "yellow smiley" with gold teeth.
