I wouldn't have done those wheels on that car if it were mine. Not big into swapping American wheels onto a German car with so many other options out there. We had a set of AMG wheels sitting around that would have looked great on the car. I've seen plenty of Italian imported stock wheels from Euro only marks that would have stood out a bit more. I just don't get the Corvette wheels on a FWD car due to width stagger putting skinny wheels and tires up front. Purely cosmetic IMHO and my Forza brain can't comprehend the PI hit for wheels and tires that make a car less effective.
The only other thing that gets me is that the customer passed on the repairs needed to keep the car running right, all of the breather lines are deteriorated and in need of repair, so he could buy the wheels and tires. (They were polished, he spray painted them flat silver.)
This one gets a fail from me. I would have rather seen the kid fix the breather hose issues first. If he had to have wheels and tires that were "original" I would have advised him to fit an oddball set of wheels from a Euro car that isn't available in the states. If he was dead set on Corvette wheels he absolutely should have had them refinished and all of the curb rash removed, not just painted over.
I think my two cents are all used up now.
