Got the hood back from the painter last night and worked on the hood/fender adjustment this morning. And I'm loving these six-spoke wheels and Kumho tires I bought from JonB. Whaddya' guys think so far? I'm liking the aggressiveness of the hood.

The hood does look good...but being a GEN II guy...I need before and after pictures to give you an informed opinion as to whether it looks better.

Well first off, I needed new tires BADLY and JonB made me a smokin' deal on the tire/wheel combo. And they look stock because they ARE stock wheels.....on the '09/'10 I believe it is. And as a benefit, they are considerably lighter than the stock '03 wheels. Plus I like them!!! And like someone said in an earlier post, these wheels look way better in person than I can capture in a photo. The six spokes have some bend in them and are the slightest bit angular........hard to explain but bottom line is that they look great in person.

I think those wheels only look run of the mill stock to Viper people, the public I'm sure will love them, and they don't look like every second Corvettes aftermarket upgrade.

I hate to say it but i gotta be honest..

Your stock srt10 pic..Well...man..It looks like a nice car...maybe a lil more agressive than a 550 manarello

But with the 2008 hood...WOW...Went from being a sweet ride to holy crap that Viper will eat me alive...

Very nice upgrade...So you have the hood and rims...Do you have the 2008 power or is that your next move with some modifications

I need to put in my opinion on the wheels. I love them. Polished 6 spokes look great on the Gen III cars. The whole black wheel fad reminds me of the black steel wheels with snow tires that I used to put on my Oldsmobile in the winter.
