Ceramic Matrix Grey C8 with red 20" Brixton Forged Wheels

2020 Corvette Stingray lowered on stock Z51 threaded shock bodies with red 20″ BC Forged wheels all around. What do you think?

We’ve seen a number of C8 wheel threads popping up on Corvette Forum now that 2020 Corvettes have finally arrived in customers’ hands. But HERE is another fun thread you should check out if you’re a fan of red wheels. This particular C8 appears to be a Ceramic Matrix Grey Z51 package car with the high-wheel spoiler.

The OP, Corvette Forum member Z0Sick6, originally said the car is “lowered on stock bolts,” but member J5isalive clarified:

The car is lowered on stock z51 threaded shock bodies. The front DOES have front axle lift so Cicio Performance created a product to work around to maintain the front axle lift and lower the front end.

This C8 also features glossy red metallic BC Forged wheels that really pop off the car’s cooler color palette. That said, those who are OCD, like me, may not enjoy the mismatch shades of red on the wheels versus the brake calipers. That said, if those were matched, this setup makes the 2020 Corvette look much more like a European supercar. And I’m, personally, a big fan overall. And painting calipers is relatively easy and affordable.

If red wheels aren’t your thing, no worries. Corvette Forum vendor Motorsports LA also popped into the thread to share their customer’s Ceramic Matrix Grey C8 shoed in ‘Midnight Smoke’ Vossen EVO5 wheels. The sizes are 19×9 up front & 20×11.5 out back and, wow, they look amazing too!

Correction: This article was originally published stating, based on a post by the OP, that the featured wheels were Brixton Forged. They are, in fact, BC Forged.
