    Default Slammed the Z06 yesterday (still quick, but better pics)

    Well thanks to swollix and my roomie Erik We slammed the vette yesterday. Im going to raise the rear up a smidge to match the gap in the front. There is a lot more sidewall in the rear being that they are 305's, so id like to try and get them as close as possible. And yes i know its dirty (see can picture).

    Enjoy

    Looks good, but you have it wrong. You need to lower the front to match the rear gap

    Josh it looks like your front settled nicely, we are starting to look like twins...

    hey dickcheese why dont you try re-reading the first couple sentences too HAHA and Erik said you lame! LOL

    Quote Originally Posted by HypnoToad

    Nah both are 18x10.5 but the rears are 305/35/18s and the fronts are 265/35/18's and that difference in width also makes for more sidewall, but the rear does need to come up a little to match the fronts, we just kinda ran outta time before the ran came through. The rears are also nitto 555R DR's and the fronts are Nitto NT555 extremes, so i dunno if that makes a difference.

    I always thought of getting a C5Z but it's cheaper on insurance for a LS3 Corvette. I love how they are coupes though.

    Looks like dat muh fuka needs to be buffed, badly!

    Looks clean and smooth. Remove the side molding and a small front lip (if even an option) would look very nice.

    ^ nah nikguh that thing gets buffed on the regular lol, its just dirty as a mug... I have thought about removing that front plastic piece but it sends air up and helps cool the radiator. As far as the body side moldings go I used to want to take them off, but now think they look kinda plain without them.

    yea dont mess with air dams,lol.....i lowered my camaro little over 1 1/2 in the front,so that thing was almost on the ground. so i took it off,then instantly started wanting to run hot on the hwy...so i cut it down and put it back on there,runs perfect again.
