Custom wheels on C3's

[Ron Brown]

am looking to put a set of custom wheels on my 72' but can seem to decide. Does anyone have any pic's of their wheels? Any help is greatly appreciated.

That is a cool car. Do you know that make of the wheels?

Yes. Even though they are badged and sold as Edelbrock wheels, I beleive Intro wheels manufactures them for Edelbrock.

That wheel and tire combo looks like they were made for that car. I wouldn't change a thing

I like Cybervette's tire and wheel combo, and I considered putting them on my car next year. Unfortunately, I just re-did my tires and wheels last year where I went with the stock look, so I can't justify the expense this year.

Lowrider Magazine has pages and pages of wheel pictures. Some on vehicles. Rarely a Corvette.

Your car looks really good. What are your tire and rim specs. I really like the look of your car. I have pretty much decided on a set of TT-II's. Just have to waite for the Tax return.

I went with "Period Correct" Appliance Wheels with no spacers.

TRW,
Your 73 is amazing! A 454 with M21...you lucky devil. The muscle mags look very cool.

 

[Rab563]

You wheels are one of the styles that I have been considering for my 72'. They look great on your car.
