These are Miro's, Type 111, 9.5" x 18's on all four corners. Tires are 275x40's. Miro has requested pictures of the car for them to post on their Website. Hope that actually happens. Not many Vettes out there with these on them.

These or ones exactly like them would probably never fit my 89' correct. Rear width is different from what I remember. I love those wheels. Love them.

These are one of my favorites of all time. Would you know if they can still make these wheels?

CCW classics.. these are odd, they are not the race version but dont have center cap mounts..

they are 10" and 11" wide.. just fit perfect.


Anyone have any suggestions?

thats all I have at the moment but in my opinion anyone who owns aqua blue must have these wheels. It makes the color.

I just need to figure out the center cap situation. Maybe just paint the hub centers silver and call it a day.

What lug nuts are those? Looks good. Contact CCW and see if they can help with the center caps.

Lug nuts are aluminum Gorilla. And yes, they are perfect.

CCW was contacted and stated its not possible to fit their caps. these are hub centric wheels designed for racing. CCW caps fit inside and they make the wheels hub centric. Id have to have them machined which Im not doing. Its just a c4 budget sportscar. already spent too much on used ccw's. Probably going to pickup a can of silver and go that route.. I painted them black but now they look unfinished.

I would get an air tool and polish them. They'll look great. IMO, the missing caps will give a more motorsport look.

Thanks, but I prefer them unpolished on my car. Aqua looks horrible with blingy shiny wheels.

Understood! How about a brushed finish Sorry to be annoying man. But my love for Fikse and CCW classics is vast.

I like them how they are I did a wet sand and a little polishing to give them more of a sheen than a shine

They are pretty rough from racing where someone kept missing the lugs with an air tool.. probably did some endurance racing. So they look very motorsport.

I've got about 30 hrs into filing, sanding, sanding again and then polishing.

Now if I could just "fix" the hub issue.

Thanks! They're very period correct and similar to the Oz Mito's that the Callaways had. They aren't made anymore, I've only seen one other set for sale.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/R17-3-Tei...gAAOSwC19bGVN1

I got a bargain when I found mine, they were just advertised as "corvette rims" and I paid less than a set of stock ones! You can probably find a set of Oz Mito in the US easier
