Default CCW wheels any pics?????????

I am looking at buying the 505a wheel and tire package. Just talked to them today and they are running a special on 19" 20" rims with Perilli tires rear will be 325 for about $4000 delivered with sensors. If I may ask for your assistance in visualizing these tires on the C6. Also has anybody had any issues with the 325 tire on a stock C6? Thanks in advance.

There is another thread going on that I posted to just last night of pics of cars with CCW wheels. You might want to check it out so we don't have to do it all over again so soon.

I've wouldn't use 20" rims on the rear but I have the CCW SP16A wheels, 9.5” x 18” front / 11” x 19” rear with the Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar EMT’s...275/35ZR18 front / 325/30ZR19 rear...stock Z06 tires and there's no problem whatsover.




CCW is the best to work with....great looking wheels, quality product...superb expertise and excellent service. You can't go wrong with CCW wheels.

The wheel/tire package is convenient and a nice way to go...out of the box and on the car.

The special we are running is with Toyo T1R tires and they are 305's in the rear. Pirelli does make a 325 but it is not part of the special. I think I spoke with you yesterday and I think you might have confused what I was saying. You can run the 325 Z06 rear tire in 19" if you wanted to go that wide. We haven't tried the 325/25-20 Pirelli yet, but it should fit like the 325/30-19 goodyear. Give me a cll with any other questions.

Default Wheels

As someone who's still trying to get it right, I encourage you to consider the 19 & 20 inch combination if you're going to use 30 series tires. I have an 18 & 19 inch combo in 9.5 and 11 inch widths and regret not opting for the 19 and 20 inch wheels. I currently have BFG KDW2's in 275/18-35 & 295/19-35. They look and handle great, but the tires are too loud for my tastes. If I want a quieter tire, I have to settle for a 30 series and end up with a large gap over the front and rear tires and the wheel openings. I wish I could unload what I have and start all over again with the 19 & 20 inch combo and quieter tires.

Melissa, Can you provide the height of the Toyo T1R's in the 19 and 20 inch sizes on your special? Won't using the 19 & 20 inch wheels make up for the overall diameter that's lost by using 30 series tires? Have you gotten feedback on road noise with the Toyo's? They appear to have a tread pattern similar to the Goodyear run-flats.

Here is my previous car on 19x10 and 20x11 CCWs, tires are 275/30/19 and 325/25/20 PS2s. In the bottom pic, you can see how well the 325 tucks under the stock fender, something that no other wheel manufacturer has been able to do AFAIK. I cannot say enough about CCW, they are GREAT to deal with, I am on my third set of CCWs, soon to order my fourth, lol.




Here is a 325 under a stock (non-Z06) fender.

Well, I sold that car and bought a 2007 'vert.

My first set of wheels on my vert was a set of chromed 505As:


I then sold them and bought my current wheels, the polished SP500s...


I am now wanting to upgrade to Z06 brakes, so ________ will likely be next, lol.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, CCW is the absolute BEST to deal with and without going into specifics, John has gone above and beyond for me in the past, and I will remain a lifelong customer of theirs. Their quality is A+, their customer service is A+, their wheels are a bargain as far as I am concerned.
