Default Find me a 18x10 69-79MM offset

Anyone have something even close in a repro?

I don't want to spend $ 1000.00 per wheel,

Been looking as well, nothing out there...the closest C6 style rim is an aftermarket chrome 18x9.5 in a 65mm (C5 offset). They work though, 'dennis50nj' has them.

Here are some 18x10.5's C6 repo's, they are 58mm offset, stick out 1 inch further than stock.

They also have 18x9.5 54mm offset that would stick out about 3/4 of an inch further than stock. I think they have polished and chrome.

That is if this is for the rear of a C6.

Aww hell just do it. I have recommended the CCW's to many people mainly because I was so happy with the fit,quality and performance of their wheels. As well as thier excellent service. Of those that have bought the CCW's and spoke to John directly have been very impressed with him and the outstanding quality of their wheels.

Sometimes you just need to say what the F$%K..

I talked with them today, I may go with the C14's 18x10 front and 18x11 rear, gonna have some wide rubber. Need to win the lottery or something.

Cheers,

George

Like Shurite44 said, just have Weldcraft in michigan widen some 18x8.5 fronts 1.5 inches for you. Or, you can get a set of 18x9.5 Y2K rears and have them widened to 10.5. These will fit perfectly. That's what I did and I am very happy with their work.

Well I just blew my tax refund and more on a new set of CCW C10 (brand new wheel style) Anodized in black.

18X10 fronts and 18X11 rears, going to run 275F and 305R Toyo RA1 tires. I should have some decent grip.

So what is the offset on the CCW C14 18x11 wheel?

Will it stick out at all with 305s?

You might consider these C5Z wheels (8x10.5 with 62mm offset): SSR comp-H, 19.8lbs, $349 from tirerack.com.
