New rims installed Niche gt5!
Got these from member Tyler skully. He shipped them and they were packaged excellently. I gave them a deep cleaning, because I’m so particular. Hit em woth clay and cleaner wax and they came out great. Couldn’t say enough good things.
Now with the rims and the hood vent I installed the look of the car has transformed. Just wanted to share with you guys. Also, had to run a 5mm spacer on the fronts to clear the brakes. Went with a hubcentric spacer too and no need for longer studs from what I read with anything under 7mm. The last picture does the rim to caliper clearance. I drove the car 200 miles today without issue |

Can I ask how much you paid for your set? I love the z28 rims and am thinking about posting these ones up for sale to get me a set. Beautiful car btw. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

All about the socket. I took my chrome spline lugs off. I think they look good. But what a pin in the A$$ to clean with ridges on them. I'm switching to the Long Black Hex ones. I don't want to scratch them up. Recomended socket so I don't mark them up. Would you use a nylon lined socket. I have one but doesn't seem to cover it enough for me.
