315/30/18, no tub. I just had to remove the inner part of the rear brake duct for clearance.

If you have C5 and you put the 19"X11"w wheels on do you have to get rid of the rear brake duct?

CCW still makes these, yes. 18x10 is the normal size people run up front with a 275 tire. And 19x11 is normal for the rear with a 305 or 295 tire depending on the brand you choose. I do not believe the 19x11 people need to remove the brake duct as I did.

You don't need to remove the brake duct to run a 19 x 11 rear.

No, I run 19X11 CCWs in the rear and it clears the brake duct.

I run ccw's with 12's (335 rear) and you can kinda squeeze the ducts but they do rub on full compression of the suspension. I took them out.

They are going on a C5Z with fender flares. They are not on the car yet, as I only got the car back from the fender install a couple of days back. Wheels and brakes should be installed the next week or so. I'll post some picks when I get it all sorted.

Looks like about 3/4" front and about 2" at the rear.
