What about your new tires Dave? Do you like them?
Glen, your Vette looks super with those wheels! Great choice.

I'm also thinking about a tire/wheel upgrade (but thinking is about all I can do at the moment). Like many of you, I have a list of future improvements as long as my arm, and wheels are not that high on the list.
[/QUOTE] Hey Mike,
Sorry DNV, I just noticed you had already spoken up about the TA's

I'm considering taller, wider wheels (16, 17) with lower profile tires. I currently have stock 15" rallys with BRAND NEW TAs now. I'm sure someone will be interested in them if I do upgrade. That MIGHT make it doable.
I'm gettin' about ready to re-shoe the '71. Depending on when, I would be interested in your TA's. Let me know what your plans are... Dwain
[/QUOTE] OOPS! Sorry DNV, I just noticed you had already spoken up about the TA's I know the voices aren't real, but they have some pretty cool ideas...

DaveM- Unfortunately, my wheels are not attached to the Vette yet. Still need to get the inserts in the wheels painted and the clearcoat applied.
Then we will be ready to roll.

Haven't taken it out yet. I have a friend painting the new lower valance I bought this winter. The old one was broken by a previous owner. Just got it back today. He said he used a clear coat that is real hard but takes about a week to dry hard. So I will but it on at the end of the week then take her for a spin
to see how the new tires handle.

Great Choice of wheel and tire combo. I almost went the same direction. Instead went with chromed ralley's and Indy 500 firehawks. See you in Carson City. That way we can all check it out.
