AndersT - that is going to look great on your car. What have you got planned for the rear of the car to make those wide wheels fit?

Thanks I´m almost finished doing a complete rebuild (the built thread is here: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...-2001-z06.html). The wheels fits inside L5 rear quarters.

Those look awful good! I've been looking at the BC Forged wheels, I had never heard of them but they look nice and have a bit of a lip to them. SN01 in particular. I like some of their LE wheels too, but they have nothing in 18 inch. My current plan was to run 18/19 combo...
