The wheels have so much brake dust and grim on them. My whole car has a layer of arizona dust but it still looks good. Photos were done at 11-midnight. Amazed at what the lighting does.

Nope, haven't dynoed yet. Waiting on a few more things. All I know is it gained power from the 1050 it was at.

Didn't change pulley sizes, just swapped to a 10 rib to get rid of slip, 2" headers, 4" inlet, etc. No rush to get to the dyno. Probably wait until the spindles/etc are done.

Forged star f14 18x10 front 18x12 rear. No idea offsets. I called forgestar and said they are for a c6z so they did whatever they do.

Tires are MT front and rear. 345 18" et streets rear, 285 18 sport comp fronts. Forget the ratio but they are 28" front and rear.

They look terrific, almost sleeper, definitely not some giant looking rear sidewall that gives you away.

How much power are those wheels/tires good for?

Forgestar is actually like 15 miles from my house. I should drop in on them sometime.

That isn't a question with a real answer. Wheels don't care about power level. Tires depend on pressure, road surface, road prep, heat, and user requirements. These hook ~80mph or so WOT in my car. Have to pedal 1st and 2nd up to 75-80 or so on the highway. Well prepped track would be different. So it all depends on what you think is acceptable and what you want.

Right, I'm just wondering if this is your regular setup for 1000HP, or your reduced power daily driver setup. And wondering if dropping an inch to 18's in the back is worth the hassle and expense.
