Default Track Wheels

Looking for a set of wheels for the track 18 front and 18 rear. I looked at the tire sizing on 1010tire.com and from what it calculates, I can run 265 or 275/35/18 Front and 305/35/18 Rear. Will this mess up the front to rear ratio? Will this play with the TC/AH. What type of wheels should I use for this? Does anyone know the offset or back spacing for this.

I am looking at a set of CCW 14's that are 18 front and 18 rear.

I highly recommend CCW wheels and my personal preference for the track is their C10 wheel. On my stock body C6 I've been running CCW C10 wheels 11” x 18” all around with Kumho 710 tires…..305/30/ZR18 front – 315/35/ZR18 rear (I use small hub-centric spacers on the front wheels). I don't have any problems with this setup. I've tubbed my rear wheel wells and I'm getting 12 x 18 CCW C10 wheels for the rear. Going to a 12 x 18 rim on the rear will allow me to use a 345 tires and it will give me a vastly better selection of tires to choose from (not that I'm dissatisfied with the Kumho 710).

I run CCW C10s. 18X10.5 fronts and 18X13 rears (I'm widebooty). Currently on 295/30/18 and 335/30/18 Toyo R888s. The 335 is the widest 18 in the R888. Old picture.
