Default 18” wheels that clear CCB

I have a 19 GS Z07 on order and want a set of 18” wheels that will clear the CCB’s. For track use, bead lock preferred. Any recommendations?

I have bought 2 sets of them from PK Designs here on the forum. Both sets were BC Forged RZ05's. Paul at PK knows how to get the offsets correct for CCB clearance. Here is my latest set with Toyo R888R's on them. You can get the entire setup from PK with wheels, TPMS, touchless mounting and balancing.

Depending on how you plan to drive you should get fully forged wheels but I know a few who have used the rotary forged wheels with good success. The standard setup is 18x11 front and 18x12-12.5 on the rear.

Give me a call or text at 440-915-6166 we use Forgeline GS1R racing which are track rated and warrantied for track usage. Tires are typically hoosiers or another drag radial and we can assist w that as well.

We can add wheel knurling as well...

I have only run the Cup 2's, MPSS and the Toyos. I have a set of used Continental racing slicks in the garage but have not run them yet. There are plenty of threads about tires for the track. Hoosier R7's are a favorite for many.

As far as bead lock goes, you can get most 18" wheels with bead knurling which is designed to keep the tire from rotating on the wheel. Both of my sets have had that option.

Now this I do agree with on the inside of the rim to help on not letting the tire move around..
