me three......I am dealing with my local Discount Tire for a set of these right now.....I hope that I do not see TOO many sets of these out there because one of the reasons for going to this wheel was so that I did not see myself coming and going in everyone else's sets of wheels. I had ZO6 replicas on my C5 and at times it seemed like everyone else did too!!

You know, after looking at the offset on these (65 mm front and rear), it appears that Cray is triyng to split the difference between a wheel that is unique to the C5 and one for the C6.
The rears are going to stick out .8 of an inch more on each side. When I take a tape measure to the rear wheels and look staight down from the top of the fender, it surely appears that the outside edge of the tires (even stock sized tires) are going to be outside the edge of the fender. Looks to me like that would throw all kinds of stuff up on the side of the car....especially behind the tires.......I REALLY like the Manta's but nearly an inch on each side in the back may be more that I can stand as far as non stock offset...........
