Default 18" CCW Classic Track wheels for sale

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1929195

I am less interested in a trade now that I have decided my polished Z16 wheels will fit the tires. They are perfectly round. 18x11 front, 18x12 rear. Only selling because I don't want to use them on the street and I'm going to track the Z06 less (buying a different track car).

Did you need to run spacers on them by chance?

On the rear, you get a tiny bit of rub at full compression of the suspension. Not enough to make me use spacers.

Replied in the other thread with interest. Need to know the offset.

Thanks.

What's the offset on the fronts? What, if any, spacers do the fronts require? I'm running 18x11 & 18x12 CCW Track Classics for my AutoX wheels currently, but the fronts require a huge spacer that gives limited lug-nut thread engagement even with the long ARP studs I have.

I do not know the offset, I'll measure them this weekend. I am not the original owner and when I called CCW when I bought them used their records only went back two years (these are three years old). I am not using spacers front or rear. More interestingly, I don't notice any rub at full steering lock. I love the wheels, I just won't have a use for them as track wheels and since I DD my car, I feel bad beating up on these for just commuting. I'm switching to some polished Z16 wheels that I had been using for scrub RA-1s.

I'm going on vacation with the car to Vegas from Thursday morning until Sunday afternoon. I will be only checking this at night so responses will be slow and why I cannot easily measure them. I will be at a buddy's garage in Vegas and if we have time I'll measure the backspacing there.
