I think it looks pretty good.

Upgraded to C5 Corvette wheels! Now I'm ready for the trail next weekend.

have you ever seen BFG Muds mounted on C5 wheels? It's sweet. At least I am unique.

Here's a picture of how my wife takes out her frustration with me and my Saturday wheelin' trips.

yeah... we tried. LOL

the lug pattern is not the same. C5 = 5x120.65

although I put mitsubishi eclipse wheels on the jeep for fun LOL. 3.5" lift and low profile tires on 17's. I have a picture of it somewhere.

Dont follow vettes lug patterns, first you would actually have to give a flying crap about a corvette and the tools that own them
