I Am Stuck With Making A Hard Decision Here.....
I really like the Cragars that came with the '81, but I also like the rallye wheels as well, want to get back to a more Corvette centric oriented look, similar to my '75.
I'm leaning towards the rallye's and the Cragars may be up for sale. Hummm, decsions, decisions.

Well aware of that, no NCRS car here. Never liked the stock Kelsey Hayes aluminum style wheels.

Put the rallye's back on and save the Cragar's for a while. You may come across something later to put them on |

The Cragers stay. Don’t even *think* of removing them Norm.
No. No Hell no. |

Put the Cragars on one side, and put the Rallyes on the other side. Problem solved.

+1 for the Cragars, I always liked those, especially with the knock off spinners. They're period correct, and if you don't like the OEM wheels for that year, then I don't see any reason to put on incorrect OEM wheels.

Appreciate the comments. I'm not concerned about exact period correctness, nor have visions of NCRS anything, just a look that I would be happy with, which will be this look.

When I'm ready, going to ask about $1200 for wheels and tires, they should go quick.

I've never been much of a Cragar fan. Given the options I think you made the right choice.
