Default Corvette Z06 Twin-Turbo feat. D2FORGED Wheels

Hey guys, we recently shipped these to a authorized vendor of D2FORGED in NJ, and when the install was done we organized a photoshoot. (What other wheel company is doing a photoshoot in 10degree weather?!)

This car is a Z06 with APS Twin-Turbo kit. The car was purchased by APS in 2006, and shipped to Australia for installation and R&D. It was then bought back to the US. The car is putting out about 900hp at the crank, and sounds like rolling thunder! It also has exhaust, PFADT Coilovers & Swaybars, and much more!!

The car used to have AVUS wheels on it, and the owner was ready for a change.

Z06-TT Teaser Video Clip

Wheel Details:

D2FORGED VS1 - 3pc
Brushed Aluminum Center / Chrome Lip
Gloss Black Inner Barrel
20x10" - 3.0" lip
20x13" - 4.0" lip
285/25 & 345/25-20 Nitto INVO's


The interesting thing about this setup is, most other companies are running a 3.5" rear lip and a 12.5" wheel. That would not cut it for us......

Absolutely can't have fly clothes (car) and bum shoes (wheels). Not the case here. Digging the wheels, nice lippage.
