Default Wanted: Light weight 18x12 wheels

I am looking for 18x12 rear wheels that will clear C6 Z06 brakes. I have long ARP studs and flares, so I can safely put up to a 5/8" spacer if needed. I don't want the heavy repro wheels - something light. Blems are fine, odd colors are fine. I am just using them for autocross.

Like me, you'll probably just have to bite the bullet and call John at CCW.

Easiest way to make it happen.....
