Yeah 505a's. I was hoping to find classics, but whatever. I didn't want to hack the bushings apart on my stock bolts and not be able to reverse it, so I ordered in zip bolts. They don't go any lower than you can get with stock fronts with cut bushings.


I would never go low enough to cut the bushings unless it was a weekend toy and our roads are great around here. All the way down on stock bolts with cut bushings will make the air damn scrape on normal roads. On the ones I've done I left about 3/16" above the bushings. Thats a little under a half inch from all the way down on the bushings measured at the fender.

For people that have never been under a c5 vette the front air dam is spring loaded. It is meant to fold back when it scrapes. It is a wear item and its sturdy but you can rip one slap off if the car is lowered and you dont pay attention. If you hurt the bumper itself you wrecked.

Whatever you do it will look better. These things look best slammed. 505A's are perfect on a C5

You should be ashamed for putting those ugly heavy rims on a performance car. Again, jealousy is a bitch.


Hardly, I just don't like the look of the zo6 rims. Jealousy? Na, I applaud you for your taste in cars. Why would I be jealous of someone with the same car? Just new car and a powerfull one at that. I have seen and heard stories of not being use to it. I to about went for a ride on a on ramp first time i drove mine.
