No problem mike!!!
I'd personally like to give a shout out to mike though, he took care of me from start to finish. Anytime I had question or needed answers he swiftly responded. Yea it took 6 weeks to get these in but a custom performance wheel that looks this good is easily worth the wait! This has easily been one of the best transactions I've ever had since owning my corvette

Will the F14s clear the bigger z06 brakes on regular C6?

the CF5's will clear the z06 brakes on a base vette though.. with a lot of finagling. ha ha.

mine actually arrived in the incorrect offset and hit the rear caliper. fronts were fine. we used a 5mm spacer at first which caused some bad rubbing problems but at least got the car mobile again. I tried sanding down my inner fender lip and getting an alignment with -1* camber, and raising the rear ride height a bit, but it still rubbed badly. I just stepped the spacer down to 3mm and it barelyyyyy clears, and I sanded more fender lip material out, and trimmed the wheel well liner.. I am hopeful this is the end of it, tired of messing with it ;(.

I've been waiting for one more thing to be done to the car before I harass my photographer friend for some updated photos, should only be another week or two. if you want some crappy cell phone photos that don't do it any justice, PM me your email address. : P

Thank you for the detailed info.

All our recommended fitments require no additional modifications to your. We have a guaranteed to fit policy on all our recommended fitments.

With that being said, if any enthusiast is willing to put in work to get the wheel to fit, we can get their desired fitment no problem.

Congratulations Chris, your wheel and tire package has been mounted, balanced and shipped. It's ready to mount out of the box onto your C6 Grand Sport.

Here's some shots we took before they left our facility.
