jdhog Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) I'm working on this old Corvette. I can't get the stock kit wheels to fit the provided tires the way I want them to. The wheel backs are also too thick. I'm thinking about doing something drastic. I'll offer my apologies to the Corvette purists in advance.

jdhog Posted June 9, 2020 Author Share Posted June 9, 2020 Yeah, I can't make myself use the later model wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I’d probably feel the same way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

64Comet404 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 For some reason, the C4 wheels suit the C4 Vette, but I haven’t seen many other cars that look good with them. Mind you, there is a 1:1 ‘59 Plodge in my area with the wheels and drivetrain, and it doesn’t look that bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
