Looking for rear wheels in 18" with the offset like the stock 19s. Have you guys seen them? I need to downgrade for racing

 

Try looking for "take-offs" from a Caddie XLR. They're 18".

 

try the c5 section,too.

 

18" X 10" X 79mm don't exist except in custom orders. You'll pay as much per wheel as you'll pay for a set of 4 (F&R) 18" and 19". If you want F&R 18" to match in stock offsets look for $3200 and up for 4 wheels.

 

I bought C6 replica wheels from TomzWheels in 18" size for the rear for my 2006 C6 so that I could run track tires. They work great.

At the time they were only available in chrome so I simply painted them. No problems after two seasons.

 

The XLR runs 18x8, I dont think anyone has 18x10.5. C5 wheel has a 53 offset, i want the 79 offset like the stock 19s. I don't see any wheels listed for the Vette on Tomzwheels

 

you need 18x9.5x65mm it will fit fine and wont stick out i use 295x35x18 bfg drags

 

You are right - I don't see them listed on Tomzwheels anymore, either. However, if you do a search for "C6 replica chrome" you can find others out there. You might try contacting Tomz or check the other forum vendors. They are definitely still available.

 

Get a pair of C5 Z06 rears (18x10.5). I run them all the way around for autocross with 315x30x18 Hoosiers. They fit and clear fine in the rear of my 2006 C6 Z51. Fronts require 1/4" of spacing in order not to rub full lock and I have car lowered as much as possible without fender lips rubbing.

 

The C5 wheels have a 55mm offset, I really don't want to change it by that much, especailly for track use.

 

From what I can see, all the C6 replica wheels have 55mm. Are there any with 79mm offset?

 

Don't forget that a wheel that is 9.5" wide will need a different offset than a 10" wheel to have the same placement in the wheelwell. If you go with a 9.5" wheel you will not want a 79mm offset.

 

trust me 65 mm on the 9.5 will work fine the 10.5 rim with 58 mm will stickout to far. i have the 65mm 9.5 and it is perfect mo one can even tell. and 20 people have done it on the forum with the same results
