new wheels

I love the wheels and get a lot of comments on them at car shows.

Craig, these look awesome. Wider than the OEM stock for a base C5? Any rub inside? Do they stick out past the fenders much? (not that it would keep me from buying) What do you think about the strength of the cast aluminum compared to the OEM? Thanks!!

The 295/35/18 rear and 265/40/17 front is the best fit although the stock C5 base Goodyear run flat 245/45/17 front and 275/40/18s are compatible they are a bit stretched but within Goodyear's recommended rim widths. Both the C7 Z06 and the OEM GM speedlines 02-04 are cast aluminum. If your looking for a dedicated track wheel then I would recommend either true monoblock forged or the TSW nurburgring or Interlagos which are a rotary Forged desing, super light weight and strong for high HP applications. We are a dealer for HRE, 360 Forged, TSW, ADV1 as well.

The 18x8.5/19x10 will be available in about 45 days but with the rear C6 offsets. No current production date for a 18/19" for the C5 with the correct offsets unfortunately.

I'm ready to buy a set of Chromes! I'd prefer the 18/19 but I'd prefer the correct rear offset.

What is the status of those now?

As an alternative, I might do the 17/18's Are they 9.5 and 10.5 widths?

thanks,

Ray

Chrome is sold out once again. If we get any more pictures we will post them up. New stock on the chrome is due in about 2-3 weeks. Now accepting pre orders. These never last long!
