I had a client drop ship me his new CCW`s for his C5 `vert. Has CCW`s on it now powder coated black and he is wanting to change the look up.


He went from a 19"-20" setup to 18"`s all the way around. Car looks very good with the new hoops on!


I also adjusted the coil overs to level out the ride and it is sitting pretty now!

I like the wheels, shiny looks good with that blue. I`m not sure I`d have changed the wheel diameter, he`s probably grown accustomed to the short sidewall. He`d almost certainly notice it if he`s running it hard. Now if he`s driving it like Grandma and Ron, no big deal. :)

Wow
 
Looks great. One of my favorite C5`s. I like both wheels. Owner can switch them out like shoes:)

Would love to see some bigger calipers and rotors on it. C6 Z06 brake upgrade would make that car perfect.
 
I like the black on that car but not necessarily the design. The new wheels step it up well...more of a custom look! I had two vert 5`s and they are great cars. Is that original paint on the car?

Original paint on the fenders, doors, rear deck. Has a new aftermarket hood installed and had the rear valance re-shot as well as the nose.
