I recently purchased a 2017 Grand Sport and both rear wheels have cracks. I want to replace all 4 with an aftermarket set. I see lots of options, although most have similar designs, and I have a hard time what to look for. My current ones are chrome, I figure to replace with chrome, but I also...

I'm about 2500 miles from home. I wonder if a TIG weld on the rim would be sufficient to get me home where I can deal with getting a replacement rim. The crack starts on the inner edge and runs about 1-2" inwards. The tire leaks air otherwise I would never have found the crack. edit: after some...

After driving my C4 for a few days I drove the C5. What a difference in ride smoothness between the two. The C5 will be sold as soon as I get my reprinted title and until I sell the C4 I'll be driving it. That may be quite awhile. I was wondering if there's a way to smooth out the C4 ride...

I agree, new car designs would be quite doable, retro-fitting would not look good. I wouldn't want the cameras to be "fish-eye" types as the distortion makes it difficult to judge distance and speed.

After putting my C4's transmission into reverse to back out of a parking stall I looked left and right to notice I'm parked between two walls... er, SUVs. So while inching backwards and hoping no impatient drivers were speeding through the parking lot I thought about the rearview camera in new...

Mine has the greasy/oily residue from the top's mechanisms. I've tried several different cleaners but avoided harsh ones so not to damage the top. Any suggestions?

Edit/Update: looks like it's the Opti-spark doohickey replacement time. I'm dropping the price. Other issues: ABS system goes in and out, brakes work fine. Traction control been out for years, I was told need new ECM. I love this car but I'm not a mechanic and older cars need more care than I...

My 2003 coupe won't start sometimes, when I try I hear a grinding sound (not from the ignition switch). I turn the key back to the off position, wait two to three minutes, then the car will start. General consensus was a bad starter so I had that replaced. It just happened again. Chevy...

I've worked in corporate America, in the the airline industry (now gone Eastern *sniff*). Rumors flew all the time. Rumors are just that, rumors, until they become true. Several did. So I wouldn't dismiss it just yet, even if company people speak the company line and proclaim this rumor to be...

Eh... never was one for white, and Atomic Orange looks like Rust to me. Glad I'm not in the market for a new 'vette. I already have a car with the red fender stripes anyway. :_rock :w

Ah, the joys of winter, when the temperature gets down to the 70s and the humidity disappears so I can take the top down without sweating away to nothing. :D

Hmmm, some moved out to the San Diego area, at least initially, although I'm not sure it was Bailey or Lane (grandmother). My folks hauled us out there in a pickup-camper back in the late 60s to see them, as well as Disneyland and the San Diego Zoo (great place!). And yeah, great video...

*sigh* I want one. Either. Ain't gonna get one. We wouldn't be any relation, would we? My last name is Bailey. Thought not. (originally from the Omaha area) :)

I have two vehicles, both are Corvettes. The Grand Sport convertible is the garage queen, for being a limited production model and it can't carry squat (believe, I've tried putting squat in it :) ). I kid people and say my red coupe is my "beater". Glen
