Default Look what the big brown truck left....

My new CCW 505A wheels (18x8.5 19x10) and C6 Supercar tires (245/40-18 285/35-19). I can't wait to get these on. Thanks John for the great deal on this package and fast shipping!

Nice wheels! Do they come with chrome lug nuts? What about locking lugs? Are all these optional from CCW?

DAMN those are nice! How much did the combo cost you?

I personally would have already had the car sitting on jackstands with the stock wheels off waiting the arrival of those. Whats taking you so long?

Yes they came with lug nuts but no locking lugs.

Ordering mine balanced w/ new sensors.

I hear they do a good job of placing the weights.

Mirror polished.. CCW doesn't offer a chrome finish any more. I believe that you can get them chromed from West Coast Corvettes though.

Yep all balanced and ready to mount. All I need to do is relearn the pressure sensors once I get them on.



I think this is a great deal for anyone wanting to upgrade to a quieter, better performing tire but retain the security of runflat tires.

DO NOT INSTALL !!! If you look closely you'll see there are minor defects in 3 of the 4 tires and wheels. E-mail immediately and I'll give you my FEDEX shipping account so I can take care of this problem for you. There is no reason you should have to pay good money for defective a product. Good thing you sent such good pics so I could point that out to you

Thanks, I've been having a hard time pulling the trigger.
Couldn't decide between the 505A's or the SP16A's

I think you helped make up my mind.
