I have been running stock sizes at the track. If you are running 18"s all around what are you using for rims and what widths front and rear? Looking for a less expensive option than new hoosiers on 19's.

Front 315/30/18 (I think they are 11" wide)
Rear 345/35/18 (I think they are 13" wide)
Not that I have much to compare, but I'm really impressed with CCW wheels!
Quality product and 1st class customer service.

Keep in perspective, they are only $27 more each tire. You are already spending $1300+, so $27 is not a good reason to go out and buy $2000+ set of rims. If you plan on buying new tires, you will not see the savings on a customized 18" wheel set for a LONG LONG time.

I'd personally find a real good dealer and work on starting a relationship for a discount.

Now, with that said, you can (from time to time), but 345/18" scrubs that come on sale through the forum, but they are inconsistent, your never sure of the their condition, and 345/18 scrubs are hard to come by (315's all day long). They are an uncommon size for C5's, and that is where most scrubs come from...but it is possible if you are willing to buy them whenever they come for sale and are able to buy extra's just in case you run out of stock and can't find any for while.

I have two sets of CCW C10 wheels. One set are the stock width, 9.5" x 18" front and 12" x 18" rear.

The second set are 11" x 18" front and 13" x 18" rear.

I run the same Hoosier tires on both sets. 295/30 R18, front and 345/35 R18, rear. I find that the 315/30 R18 is a little too wide on the 11" wide CCW wheels. When I tried them, I got pretty significant rub on the outside edge of the tire with the fender liner. The 295/30 R18 works better for me on the front. I still get a slight amount of rub with the 11" x 18" CCW C10 wheels, but it is such a small amount of rub that it doesn't even remove the lettering on the edge of the tire.

I also have a set of OEM C6 Z06 wheels that I run with 295/30 R18, front and 345/30 R19, rear. No rubbing at all with these.

I say the least expensive option is to pick up a set of OEM wheels from someone selling in the C6 Parts FS/Wanted section. I picked up a set of perfect polished wheels for $700 recently.

The least expensive option (and what I went with) is just running Alcoa or Speedline C5Z rears all around. Then you can throw a 305 or 315 on them and rotate. You may want to run a spacer in the rear, but honestly it works perfectly fine.

Also, I shot you an email about the pads again (this is Scott). What did you decide to do? I need to do something quick.

Feel free to PM me.

Sent you an email.

I run 18x10.5s in the front. These are C5 Z06 rear wheels with 1/2" spacers and ET lug nuts. I still need a bit more spacer, but this combo will do for now.

The rear is 18x12 C5 Z06 replica wheels. I could have run w/o spacers but I put 3/8" with ET lug nuts.

Where did you find the 18x12 C5 Z06 replicas from? Everywhere I looked only had the 18x10.5.

Thanks
