Pics of Pewter convertible with chrome Z06 wheels

I've been wanting a pewter car for awhile so I located a '99 convertible in MS a few weeks ago and had it shipped up here. Couldn't keep it stock so I took care of a few mods - chrome 18x10 Z06 wheels wrapped with 275/35/18 Nitto 555 tires, painted calipers, Eradispeed rotors, GM pads, Wings West airdam and grill, Stage II HID low beams and lower driving lights, clear corner lights, 200 MPH cluster, SLP lid, MAF, smooth bellows, a ported throttlebody and Predator programmer. The only things left are to have the Suncoast Creations SS hood painted so that can replace the stock hood, should be seeing the 2800 Vigilante converter in a few days and the factory leather will be replaced with a set of custom leather seat covers. This one will be a quiet daily driver so the exhaust will be staying stock.

what offset are your back rims? I'm asking Cause i just put Y2K's on mine with 5/16 spacers and i don''t yet feel comfortable with the lugs. They tightened up tight, but not as many threads ( not sure if i trust them yet) Oh they look good on your car, Pretty sweet dude!

I believe these wheels have a 50mm offset. The only place I found the wheels to be tight was at the jounce bumper. The tires were real close with the rear hanging down when the car was on the lift.

I'm going to stick with the same color for the seats but a better quality leather from www.leatherseats.com.
