Anybody have 18X12 wheels on all four corners?
I’m looking at getting some wheels for auto-x and track use. I found some that are CCW classics race 18X12 for all four. Has anybody tried this setup? Can you still use the rear brake ducts? I spoke with the guy that has them he said he had CCW make them for him and they didn’t rub but he didn’t have a Z06. Thanks for any help

I run 18x13 rear and 18x12 front CCW Classics
on the rear I need a 3.8" spacer.
12 is very wide for the front. Kind of a pain at slow speeds in the paddock and on the street. But on the track it is great. Not sure about auto-x as a 12" front does not turn in very well on tight cones
on the rear I need a 3.8" spacer.

I run in NASA TTS. I have CCW wheels 18x12 in the rear and 18x11 in the front. The 18x11 with 315 Hoosiers do rub lightly on DRM/ LG brake coolers. Coolers need to set lower than normal against the inside wheel well or it will rub through it. Place a couple layers of tape and replace it after each race to save then plastic DRM coolers.
