CCW 505s
I am about ready to spring for a set of CCW 505s with PS2 275/35/18 front and PS2 305/30/19 rears. I would like some advise/input from those of you with similar set ups.
I can live with a little reveal outside of the fender in the rear, but want to keep it to a minimum. Any pics would be helpful. Thanks to all. Mark

You shouldn't have any problems with that setup. Nice choice.

I have the 18/19's, and the same size tires you mentioned in Bridgestones, they are worth a look. Talk to John and Chip at CCW and they will help with your concerns. I had the same concern.

Chrome!!!
If you can spare the extra cash go with the chrome!!!! I have the polished with 305/30/19 PSII on the rear and 275/30/19 on the front, love the set up but wish I would have went with chrome!!!

Pirrelli's, & Bridgestone's will sit flush with the fenders even though they're the same size as the PS2's. The PS2's will run 20-30mm wider than the Pirrelli's or Bridgestone's and about 10mm wider than the BFG's. With that said the extra buldge on the PS2's makes them more aggressive looking and hang out slightly. I'll try to find some photos of the PS2 fitment.

Just got mine
Chip at CCW fixed me up with exactly the setup you're looking at and I luv it. I went with the Michelins and they do stick out a bit further then i expected but not so much that it bothers me. The wheels are top notch and the service from CCW could not have been better. You WILL luv the look and feel of your vette with these wheels and non-runflat tires. Good luck and enjoy!!!! Ron
