Default TSW Interlagos Wheels

Anyone have these wheels or have any experience finding them in Stock C6 base sizes and offsets ?

I've searched but seems nothing in exact C6 base stock size wheels.
Just wanted to ask here before calling any of the distributors.
And, or, maybe a Forum Vender can chime in with some info

Check the TSW website, they list the sizes they manufacture for each style of wheel, they also have a dealer locator on the website.

Sold a set of these the other day to a customer, not with a Corvette though. This wheel looks nearly identical to the wheels used on the Callaway corvettes.

Thanks, but that the 1st place I looked.
No Stock sizes and no distributors anywhere near me

Thanks, I did see that thread during my search but missed the part where the 18 x 9 would be available.
I had Tunnel vision looking for the stock sizes 18 x 8.5

These are the first rims I've seen that I really want, and would love to see a C6 with them on it.

PM me the Pics if you don't mind and I'll post them for you ...
Or, have you tried simply attaching them to the post?

When your in the post mode just click on the paper clip at the top of the post area and it will let you browse your computer for the pics and upload/attach them to the post.

I see you got the 19x9 and 19x10.5
That's what's been throwing me off.
I'm looking for stock sizes to keep the 18/19 combo.
Front 18 x 8.5
Rear 19 x 10
But I guess with the Front 18 x 9 being available soon and going with the Rear 19 x 10.5, should be a nice setup.
Looking to put a set of Michelin A/S Plus ZP tires on these rims.

I'll just have to call and see what can be had

Those wheels look great!

But it does look as if the rears stick out a little. If TSW is going to make wheels for Corvettes, why can't they get the offsets correct?

they look great.
Ready to get a wheel/tire package with Silver/Machined Interlagos. F18x9 and R19x10.5
But, started thinking the same thing after looking at the rears more closely.

Anyway, here's all I found for Real Life pictures of the Silver/Machined Face version I want.
These are 20" rims for the new Camaro ... look Nice

Update: Just looked at my car with OEM Gumby wheels being 10" wide, and the rears are sitting just "barely" inside the fender lip.
If the offset for 10.5" rims is all to the outside, then the edge of rim/tire will sit just "outside" the fender lip

Does anybody know if he used spacers to fit the Z06 brakes behind those wheels?

I haven't seen my car in so long...I went down and pulled the cover, Frank. Just checked to see the tire-within-the-wheelwell thing. I've got stock gumbys, stock brakes, and stock size tires (PS2 ZPs) and they are well within the rear wheel wells. Could be the tires are narrower than the GY Supercars?????

I do like those Interlagos wheels tho.

No spacers were used to clear the GS brakes. The fronts clear by about 3/16" which is pretty close. Rears clear by more than that. I'm not sure of the offsets, but was told they are stock. The rear wheel is 1" wider (towards the inside) than stock, which allowed me to run a 305 tire. The wheels do stay inside the fender, but at the bottom do stick out just a bit. I ordered Apsis fender guards for the front and back to help with this. The picture is a little deceiving and does make it look like it sticks out more than it does.

Hi Bill, I looked at mine again, and as Rob pointed out, it can be deceiving.
Took these pics and it looks closer than they really are.
There's 1/2 inch from the outer fender edge to the outer lip of the stock Gumby wheels in the rear.
And the tire itself at the side bulge is 1/4 inch away.

Rob, Thanks for posting the info.
Do you have any pictures from directly behind the car showing wheel/tire and fender ?

Have to agree with you, Frank---it is deceiving to look at it. I just went again and looked using a straight edge (metal level). Good to know the clearance is there tho.
