2020 Corvette of the Year Finalist (track prepared)
C3 of Year Winner (track prepared) 2019
Atlanta local $800 - (4) 18x10 PVD Chrome Torq Thrust II
My car is getting ready to head off to the body shop so I will no longer be able to utilize these wheels.
(4) 18x10 5x4.75 5.75" backspace Torq Thrust II - Part#VN8158161. Included are 4 295/35-18 Nitto NT-05 tires in good shape with little use/wear.
The wheel did rub on the rear spring bolt (way back with I still ran monoleafs) so they are not 100% perfect, but have no blemishes that I am aware of on the face. Can provide additional photos if needed/requested. I did run a 1/4" billet spacer on the front to clear the Baer brakes, but that was with 14" rotors.
These were mounted on a car with both VB&P monoleaf and subsequently ridetech suspension. On a lowered car, the rear tire would very slightly rub the inner frame at compression. Your alignment/camber, and ride height may make this a non-issue, but I was tracking my car and had it a bit more aggressive.

Just wanted to chime in and say this is a REALLY good deal!
I'm looking to buy this exact same setup except with the gray version of these wheels and it's easily twice as expensive brand new. If you're looking to upgrade your setup this is probably the best deal I've seen here in a while.
I didn't think 295s would fit on the fronts without running at full rotation, though; any issues there?
I had in my notes 285 rear tires as maximum width fitting on a late C3 without offset trailing arms or fender flairs but on 9.5" rims for some reason...
Why on earth are you getting rid of these?
Any issues with any balancing out without a ton of weights or anything?

GLWS!
It's an INSANELY good deal and the tires themselves are great sticky compound, too.

Well... for starters, I have even wider wheels (18x10.5 with 315 tires square) I run normally. But even those will be sold shortly as the car is getting Custom Image Corvette flares over the winter.
