Good point.

Is the flange TOTALLY Black on GS's? Some repro's have 'deep dish', with a 3" deep flange, polished. HIDEOUS, IMO...



Anyway, is GS the only one with Black 5-spokes? Could Base models and Z's be ordered with them? Were they even available before '96?

Steve - did you consider Yellow paint on the calipers? If your pads are lo-dust, that would be pretty sharp, to not worry about keeping them bright...

The wheel in my pic is a GM GS front. And the GS was the only car to come with Black 5 spokes, That is why I will have to have the rears re finished as the GS 17x11s have a 50mm offset vs the 36mm on our cars.

Yes I considered yellow and red on the calipers I just like black best. If I can ever find another set of GS calipers (the ones that say Corvette) I will change them.

I run standard semi-metallic pads, if it dusts the brakes are working!

I'll put you up for a week @ Emerald Isle NC, + grub, + a couple of icy lagers, and you can show me how to install my OBX's . Might even be able to throw in ammo; bring your 'Black' hardware.

Fletch [fletchusmc] said he probably could hop in his Z, and go shootin' too on the 17th (he's about 18 miles away from there, range is on his turf / Jacksonville). Hafta' give Jeff [Shrek] a call too here...

05/11 - 05/18; yeah, same week as BG - couldn't help that this year. Huge place - 9 beds / 3 levels. Only sis and stepmom will be there...



THIS hardware is gettin' dusty, waitin' for warm weather...

I have a spare bedroom, multiple stores within a couple miles where I can get you all the food and brew you want, and I work for an airline - so careful what you offer - it might just come true...LOL

You'll soon join the land of 5 Saturdays followed by a Sunday!
If you make it to the NW you're welcome here.
There are 3 guest bedrooms.
You can show me how to "Clean-up" the engine compartment
