I've got C6Z06 style rims with the offset for a non-Z06 C6. 18x9 and 19x11. I am running 265/35-18's in the front and 305/30-19's in the rear. The hard part is finding a matching set, front and back, without breaking the bank.

How much harder is the ride compared to the stock setup,and do you get tramlining from the wide front tires?

I stayed with the C5 stock size 245/45/17 front 275/40/18 rear omnly because I did not need new tires, and I have no problem with stock size wheels.

The ride quality of my car is actually better than before for me. I went with Nitto Invo's for the rubber and it is much better than the Pilot Sports I was running on my stockers. The car does not track much if any unless the road has very deep "tire groves". i have no idea where the rims are from. I got them off here for $660 shipped.

BTW, lowered on stock bolts, no spacers.
