Very Nice job!! I have the same car only Black, but you have given me something to think about. I really like what you have done. Thank you for putting these videos out there. My one son has a few super cars but I have had my Base "08 since 2012 and always enjoy taking her out when the nice weather permits.BTW mine as I mentioned is all Black, but that Jetstream Blue has to be my favorite color!! Hope to see more of your videos! Thanks again, Alex from NJ
Thank you I appreciate it!! I love black C6 corvettes they look so good! I understand, we gotta use the nice weather while we have it! Thanks again for the comment :)
I remember commenting on your best first mods video about wanting a c6. Fast forward to today I finally found my 2009 c6 z06 in black with 34k miles. Love it! I have those exact wheels you installed on my car 💪 the fitment on your car is perfect. Looks awesome.
It looks great man! I just got my very first Grand Sport and was gonna get those wheels but I saw the sizes are the same so I’m holding off. Plus I like the way the GS chromes look. Maybe down the line I’ll get some C7 wheels on her. Great color btw. When shopping for mine I honed in on JSB and CGM and got it in cyber gray and love it. Keep even coming!
Thank you I appreciate it! I’m glad you are loving the cyber gray, another awesome color! C7 wheels look good on the C6s for sure! Can’t go wrong with any of them!
You need to put wheel spacers on the rear end to bring your back wheels out some. They're tucked in too far. After that I would get you a pair of paragon lowering collars. For the front if it's got front lift and then I will turn around and spin your rear suspension down at least one inch to match the front. It's sitting a little too high
@@apprenticeautomotive I love the C7Z wheels, I heard they were prone to cracking easily tho. Do you remember where you got the reps? I think the 10s might look good on my base fenders without spacers. thanks!
I think a 20mm spacer would make the rear flush with the stock wheel and tire size. I would do it but I think you’d need to get longer studs to get full thread engagement
So what are the front wheels tire size? I got somebody with a 19x10 with 275/35 front and 20x12 rear with 345/25 I have carbon rear widebody am scared the front will stick out and make it look goofy
As you daid theres nothing wrong with a bigboy spacer. And even tho you put the larger quarters. Those wheels wouldnt fit with ghe spacers....or would they the rear of fhe car sits pretty high. Love that year vette by the way. Definitely a gem especially nowadays
Thanks I appreciate it! Yeah the rear definitely sits a little higher than the front, I’d like to level it out ideally, I’ll try the lowering bolts first and see how far that’ll get me!
From a corvette enthusiast to a corvette owner, I can say, “Damn that Vette Clean!”
Thank you I appreciate it🤝

More vette content!!!!!
I agree! Hopefully once the weather gets nice I can make some more
What brand rear fenders are those ? Any fitment issues ? Thanks
They’re from JD Corvette, there really weren’t any fitment issues they bolted right up! They just needed some sanding before paint but that’s it
You need to put wheel spacers on the rear end to bring your back wheels out some.

where did you source out the wheels?
Facebook marketplace
what wheels did you have on originally?
I had some C7 ZO6 replicas on but they were only 10 wide in the rear instead of 12

The wheels look great but the c6 didn't come with that molding on the door, maybe the previous added it but it would look way better without it
These are OEM z06 wheels? So 18x.9.5 +40 up front? I also only have rear wide body so its been hard to find wheels
Yes these are OEM wheels, the front fit flush with the base model body so it’s perfect!
i think the new wheels look sick! any plans to get z06 fenders and front bumper?
Thank you! I would like to eventually but I have other plans first. I’d like to do heads and Cam before that
how wide should a spacer be to have a flush fitment in the back just like that one on the front?? Thank you
I think a 20mm spacer would make the rear flush with the stock wheel and tire size. I would do it but I think you’d need to get longer studs to get full thread engagement
So what are the front wheels tire size? I got somebody with a 19x10 with 275/35 front and 20x12 rear with 345/25 I have carbon rear widebody am scared the front will stick out and make it look goofy

You have widebody rear quarter panels, not base.
Correct, but base front fenders still
