Default Wheel sizes and offset's

04 c5 Z06

what wheel size and offset will allow me to run Hoosier A6 315's in the front and Hoosier A6 335 in the rear ?

Since I've done a few modifications to my car it is in ASP class so I want to get some nice auto-x only wheels and tires

It would be nice to know these sizes while I'm looking around for something I like on the internet and there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of documentation of what people are successfully using

my best guess so far would be an

Front :
18x11 58mm offset/ hoosier 315 a6 11" min recommended wheel width

Rear :
18x12 62mm offset/ hoosier 335 a6 12" min recommended wheel width

Suggestion #1: You will have better chance at an intelligent response by posting up what car you plan to use.

Suggestion #2: Regardless of car, go for a lower diameter wheel, especuially for autocross.

Suggestion #3: Consult with Bill Dearborn - a Corvette autocross AND wheel/tire expert. He is on this forum regularly. (There are many others, of course.)
