I'm interested but I need to know if the AP CP9668 calipers will clear the fronts. There is a template that Jeff Ritter had prior posted:
http://www.essexparts.com/storage/wy...template_2.pdf
Would you be able to use these templates to confirm clearance?
I assume these are 325/710 contis on the rear? I think the reason nobody is expressing interest in these is that generally folk think they need 18" all round for tires on a track car. I've been using my 19" rears with conti 325/710s also. They rub and wear down the inner wheel liner but really who GAF? It does lengthen ones gearing I suppose. I'm interested in these if they clear the brakes because otherwise I'll need to run a spacer on my OEM rims.
I am incidentally going to be down in Los Angeles w/ the car trailer some time in the next 3-5 weeks...

Thanks for the interest.
1. Yes, they are 325/710 contis on the rear
2. Yes, they clear the brakes with 2mm to spare.

1) CCW never made a 19x13 C140, only a 19x12. How are you measuring rim width? If this is outside to outside you are one inch off the nominal spec, which would also suggest the fronts are actually 18x9.5. Can you confirm the exact sizes ordered from CCW?
2) Are these shotpeened? This was an option on this wheel, unlike the C10 and C14 where shotpeening is the default.
3) Are you the original owner or did you buy these from someone else (i.e., do you have original order info with actual manufacturer's spec shown.)

Sizes were confirmed to be as follows:
Front
9.5" wide
6.75" back spacing
Rear
12" wide
9" back spacing
I bought these wheels used from another C6 Z06 owner.

Couple of other questions:
