Default WTB: Racing Wheels

I'm looking for a set of wheels for the purpose of autox and track events that are in good condition. Target sizes are 18 X 11 in the front and 18 x 13 in the rear. I'll consider different widths but I'm pretty set on the height.

Thanks in advanced,
~Jeremy K.

EDIT: Also. The car these wheels are intended for is a 2007 C6 Z06.

Fronts are 18x10.5 BS to rim lip is 8.75" w/ 275-35-18 RA1s

Rears are 18x12 BS to rim lip is 9.25" w/ 335-30-18 RA1s

here are some pics







I also have a set of T1 size(at least that is what we ran) CCW classics with polished centers, the spacers to go with them and old goodyear slicks among other wheels. Look for them in here or the C5 parts for sale section in the next few days.

17x11 F&R backspace is 8.25"

Did T1 used to be 17x11? If not then I guess I measured wrong. I wasn't here when my boss ran T1 so I don't know. He just said they the old T1 wheels. So if T1 has always been 17x10 then that is what they are. I will double check tomorrow.

You should post the car model. Just the size spec is not enough... C5 vs. C6 offsets are different... the CCW Classics don't clear the C6 Z06 brakes...
