I was gonna get the CCWs too but i just don't like the 19s for front and back, just looked like too much tire in rear for me, bugged me. And i love the stock Z06 wheel design I just wanted bigger so i went with these and couldn't be happier.

You've really got me fired up about this. They look great on your black car. Does anyone out there have a pic of these on a yellow Z?

Default '03 Rims

Just started looking a week ago for new rims, as my rear tires are just about there. Glad I came to this forum.
Anyone know a good resource for the CCW wheels? Do they make them in the stock ZO sizes or do you have to upsize?
To the guy with the Americans - do you feel that performance has been compromised by using narrower rims, than stock?
Thanks.
