I think I know the answer to this (I need new tires) but want to confirm.
I want to buy new rims for my 2001 quicksilver coupe (birthday coming up...grrrr). I had my eyes on the C6 Style Black Motorsports. They come as a set of 18x8.5 and 19x10. If my memory serves me right, the stock thin spoke aluminum rims I have are 17" fronts and 18" rears. The tires (which I replaced just one year ago) are front: Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 245/45 ZR 17 95Y and rear: 275/40 ZR 18 99Y.
To get these rims I am thinking I am gonna need new wheels?
The C6 Style Machine Faced Motorsports come in more size options than the blacks...
17x8.5 and 18x9.5
or
17x9.5 and 18x10.5
or
18x8.5 and 19x10
I like, however, the look of the Black Motorsports better.

Yes, your stock rims are 17x8.5 and 18x9.5. If you want to keep your stock tires, and if the only size rims in the black motorsports is 18x8.5 and 19x10, then you are out of luck. You could always sell your stock tires and get the wheels you want with new tires on them.
