Got a 2010 Corvette Grand Sport convertible
Its red with a black top
So far very impressed with the way chevy has updated everything (Launch control, paddle shifting, navi, electric convertible)
Also love the rear wheels, 325s in the rear, way to go chevy

Only thing im still not sure about is should i put the white Grand Sport stripes on? Black? None?

Also paint the rims black or leave them?

 

Congrats on the GS, the torque is addictive.

 

i think black or gray rims would be sick! congrats on the pick up.

 

Very true, off the line it doesnt feel that it has as much jump as the Gran Turismo but once i realize its not that different the Vette is a freaking rocket

Worried about trying launch control, idk if it will burn the tranny like ferraris and GTRs

 

I think the GS is the best looking Corvette available, comp grey or black wheels would add a little more aggressive look to it.

 

Here's a good deal for you:

Nice GS. You won't regret the comp gray wheels. I have them on my GS and they look the business. But that deal David just posted is ridiculous. I'm kicking myself in the *** because I bought replicas for 1,000. Would much rather have had these.

By the way if I were you I'd buy a new set of tires ASAP. The runflats are garbage. I noticed a significant increase in off the line capability when I went to the Kumho KU36s. Plus you can do 345s.

 

345s on the stock 325 wheels?

 

congrats! black rims with red lip or ring and maybe black stripes or none = )

 

Yep. They fit like a glove. Have them on mine...

 

Right, 100% like a glove. Just be careful with different brands and their varied sizes. The stock 325s are as wide as another company's 345s. Make sure to look at section width measured in inches. Stock tires measure 13.2 inches wide. The Nitto Invos measure 13.35 and are popular with GS / Z owners because they come in at a great price. The Kumhos are a little more expensive but they measure 13.8, which is why I bought them. Regardless of what tire you buy, you're in for a drastic difference in the way the car feels. The car will inspire more confidence in cornering as well as better forward grip at all speeds.

 

very nice find..congrats on the new ride..I say no stripes..keep it clean..black rims are so over rated but thats just me..

 

^^^Over rated?? I LOVE black wheels...!!

Come on buddy...your Blacked-out 996 will look BETTER with Black wheels!
TRUST ME!

 

I'm with you. Not feeling the black rim thing. I keep trying but, still not feeling it. Maybe one day.

 

OP...nice pick up. I have torch red 2010 c6 standard and love it. I think I'll get a GS next...and make the current on dd!
