I've always wondered what a black third gen would look like with rally wheels, and I'm not sure whether it looks pretty or not, but it certainly looks TUFF! And in my book TUFF is better than pretty.

Thanks!

Yeah, I'm never quite sure if I want to switch to something else... the old school musclecar guys see them and almost always like them.

Kids my age and the younger generations are always asking me why I have steelies with hubcaps and trim rings, and I always have to smile when I explain that my rallies can be considered "Corvette Rims"

Either way, it makes the whole thing more of a conversation piece.
