WTT: My 18/19 CCW 505a's to your 18/18 CCW SP500's or 505a's
This may be a long shot, but it's worth asking anyways. Must be within driving distance of East KY, and must be a straight up trade unless it's a perfect setup. My rims are nearly perfect, I'll rate them a 9 of 10. I'm NOT looking to sell outright at this time. I'm ONLY looking to trade for CCW SP500 or 505a's in 18x10/18x11.5. Although, if they are of equal value, I will consider others. They do not have to clear big brakes as I have stock C5Z06 brakes still.
MINE WILL CLEAR BIG BRAKES FRONT/REAR: They have a slightly different spoke arch to allow maximum caliper clearance.
Front:
18x10 with 275 Pilot Sport PS2's
Rear:
19x11.5 (305/30/19) Pilot Sport PS2's with approx 60% tread left. Each tire has a plug in them, but has been professionaly repaired by patching from the inside of the tire. They hold air perfectly and haven't gave me a single problem.
Here they are on my car:
I love these wheels, I am only wanting to trade down to an 18/18 setup so I can run a 315/35/18 Toyo TQ Drag Radial on both my summer (CCW) and winter (Stock Z06) wheels. Trying to hold 550rwhp on street tires has become more work than fun unfortunately, and doesn't allow me to play when I get that perfect chance to.
If I could find a 305 or 315/30 or 35/19 drag radial I would hold on to these wheels forever, but unfortunately, they are nothing available under $500 a tire.
I'm just seeing what is out there. If I don't trade this winter, I may just have to bite the bullet and order a get of Toyo R888's but shew........ :o

I'd like to find a local trade if I could to be honest. I'll just hold onto the rims if not and order some Toyo R888's and try them out to see if I get a little better traction. I don't really want to fool with shipping if I do sell them.

Who? How much? Where can I get?
The closest one I have found were the Toyo R888 and Pilot Sport Cups but those are both about twice as much as the 315/35/18 Toyo TQ drag radial I got for $230 a piece!
The only other one I've came across is the NT-05 R I believe it was. But it was for the C6 and it was like a 345/30/19 or something like that. Wayyyyyy too big for my car. I need a 305 or a 315, although I MIGHT be able to squeeze a 325 on there if I remove the brake duct.

Depends, I would entertain offers, but I really need a trade so I can have a set if wheels. if I sell, I need enough to buy another set if wheels/tires.
I'm now at 765rwhp and hooking up 19" rubber bands isn't happening, lol.

I will be at Corvette Expo in TN rocking the CCWs. If someone had $3,000 cash there, I may have to get someone to haul my stock wheels down to me, haha!
