Crystal played a character who used to say, “Darling, you look marvelous!”
When it comes to the appearance of your Corvette, this is the reaction you’re
looking for from
on-lookers. And your best chance
to make this happen has to be with the installation of a new set of rims.
Our project 1974 Corvette (you may recognize it from our recent brake article,
“Stainless
Stopping”) has had the same mags on it for years,
installed back when the turbine wheel was far more stylish.
Rims
on a Corvette, or any car, are a statement, and that statement
can easily be made in the wrong
way. Many times we’ve seen owners install a set of great-looking mags on the
wrong body style, a combination that can take away from both the car and the
mag choice. This is why
when it came to our 74 Stingray, a
lot of thought went into our rim choice.
