Thanks !

CCW SP500 wheels
http://www.ccwheel.com/files/wheelpr...y.php?id=SP500

Front 275/30/19
Rear 305/30/19

I have Continental now, but thinking about Hankook Ventus V12 evo K110 because they are only $820 on Tire rack.
It will be a long while before I need new tires but the above seems like a good deal.

am I the only one who doesn't like all these aftermarket wheels (CCW, HRE etc...) over the stock Corvette wheels?

y2k thin spokes are some of the nicest looking on the vette. I also think the gumby 09 rim looks sharp.

and CCW sp500

Good luck on your garage ! One of these days I want a 4 car garage with a loft. A real man cave..... *bellowing manly laugh*...

Waiting for new wheels is not easy.... Turn off the forum for the next year and you will not be so tempted...
