They are only available 18x9.0 and 18x10.5. Would these sizes work for you?

Why would you offer front and rear wheel sizes that you state will clear C6 Z06 brakes, and yet your wheels are narrower than the stock C6 Z06 wheels?

I would recommend that you go back to the drawing board and come out with the following:

18 x 10 inch fronts

19 x 12 inch rears.

The reason is because some forum members with regular C6 corvettes have upgraded their calipers to C6 Z06 ones and are having a tough time finding wheels that clear the calipers but are not to wide for the regular C6.

A lot of the Z06 track guys run 18x11 front and 18x12 or 18x13 in the rear. There are more tire choices available for those size wheels.

Hey alex,i spoke to you yesterday about the f14 wheels going on a c4 with c6 z06 brakes.
What offset does the front 18x11 wheel you listed above for the c6 z06 have?
And do you know how much room it has between the z06 caliper and spoke of that wheel?
That wld help a ton!!
Thanks!

I assume you carry the TSW Nurburgring for the C5 Z06 which measures 17"x9" with 50mm offset. However, my interest is to run these on the rear of my base C6 with drag slicks. What I want to know is will the 17"x9" TSW Nurburgring clear the Z06 rear brake calipers which I was planning to upgrade to? Your help is appreciated.

To clear the Z06 brake calipers you need at least an 18" TSW Nurburgring in the front (18x9.0).

i am fully aware that I need to run the 18" Nurburgring wheel in the front. However, my question specifically is focused on the rear with Z06 brakes. Since the rear Z06 brakes are smaller than in the front, can I use the 17x9 Nurburgring wheel in the rear?

i know it would be a little odd to run 17 in the rear and 18 in the front, but for drag strip use, a lot of people do it so they get a better launch. I also know about the risk of running a rear bias ply tire and a front radial tire, but drag racing is already full of risks.
