Question about CCW wheels
I plan on getting CCW classic's. I want the 18x11.5 on the rear with 18x10 on the front. I will be running 335/30 on the back. How much do the rear stick out from the fender?? pics would be great tks

With that backspacing, you'll probably recieve a spacer for each rear wheel. I run 18 by 12's with a different offset and am tucked in. You'll stick out maybe 1/2" if that.

I believe the CCW 11.5 stick out the same as the 11", the extra .5 is on the inside. My 11" stick out just a small amount. Not all 335s will fit these rims, check with the tire maker and give CCW a call. They are great to work with. They will even sell you the tire wheel combo.

Not with the CCW 11.5' rims. They have a special off set and fit the car fine.

Checkout my pics. I'm running the CCW package as well.

Not sure if this helps or is relevant but I have CCW 11.5 x 18 rears with 305 R2's. Car is lowered......long bolts in the back cut front bushings.
I am getting rubbing (slight) on the inner fender well against the inside tire side wall. But I do track the car also.

I knew you were cool with it... It was more of letting the person who started this thread know that fact.

$50K+ cars with the tires sticking out, very cool! 
I read the sixties were over.
When you hit a pothole, or curb, and the tire hits, and fractures your wheel lip you'll be re-thinking your choice.
345/25/20/13 INSIDE the well, and slammed!

Or you just get wider fenders. These rear fenders are 3/4" wider then stock.
I dont think tubbing a car is a good idea at all. Tubing makes the car have a narrower track width. Wider is better.
I use longer ARP studes and a 3/8" spacer
Rear wheels are 18x13" rim with 18x335/30 Hoosier. a 335 Hoosier is about a 340-342 on most other tires.
