I'm trying to mimic this setup but it doesn't state which wheel offsets.

https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...hadwick-d.html

He mentions:

Forgestar f14s in gloss gunmetal finish with toyo r888
18x9.5 front (285/35-18)
19x11 rear (305/30-19)

But 285/35/18 doesn't exist in R888, I am assuming he meant 275/35/18 fronts or 265/35/18

This is the exact setup that I want except in gunmetal. The perfect tires and size. Where can I get them and how much? I want them mounted and shipped to my house. I am ready to buy.

I know it's not a Z but I thought I'd share my new F14 set up, they took a while to arrive in the UK (ordered during a Thanksgiving sale!) but it was worth the wait.

I believe there is a guy with wide fenders running those, but i could be wrong, i tried finding the pic but i cant seem to find it. I also dont think its a Z.

I cant confirm for him but it looks to be lowered. Possibly lowered on stock bolts.

MotoJB sold the Z. In the first pics, it's lowered on stock bolts. The pics with the wide-body fenders, he was lowered using coilovers.

Every single pic in this thread is of a z06, I'm considering forgestar f14 or cf10 to run on my 01 coupe. Any reason the specs posted in this thread aren't applicable to a coupe?

Is anyone running a 305 35 19 tire in the rear? I would like to throw a set of DRs on in the back such at nt05r.

Also wanting to do 19 x 11 at +55offset with deep concave in the rear. In the front I would run 19 x 9 +44 on 275 30 19 up front, any issue with this setup on my coupe? Thanks for your help.

Will this is the Z06 discussion part of the C5 forum, thats why its Z06's posted in here. But yes the 19x11 with 55 will fit the rear with no problem with 305's, no difference in a C5Z and Base C5 offsets. I dont see why the 19x9 44 with 275/30 wouldn't work.

Thanks, didn't even realize the subforum found this thread via a google search.

Wasn't sure if by chance there was a difference in the flare on the rear fenders between the z06 and coupe, doesn't sound like there is.

Just need to find someone to purchase my CCWs or trade with someone who has forgestars in the size I'm looking at.

SP20As in 19x10 and 20x11. Going to take a step down in size to either all 18s or 19s so I can fit some DRs on and get a little more side wall.

Correct. I mis-typed it in that thread and just corrected it even though it is old. The front tire size is 275/35-18 toyo r888
