The Rally wheels look light years better in my opinion. I think you made the right choice.

rallys look just right with our cars.

Its difficult to tell someone who just spent 3 grand on new customs that the rallys or stock slots actually look BETTER on the car.

Default The only choice
I'd never consider anything else on my Vette.

I was just wondering since I had such a hard time finding a set of good used rallys. Finally ended up getting them from Uptmors......just outside Waco.
BTW...that's a magnificant pair of vettes you have there.....I believe this is the first time I've seen them.
