Recommend 19 rear Z06 wheels for traction??
Is there a company making 19x12 rears for the c7z06 that will match the fronts? Getting near 700whp need more traction.
recommendations?

You got it. I have a set wrapped in Nitto NT05R's, they look great and have run 10.80's on them on an unprepped dragstrip and they feel super stable on the street.
Pictures of my setup in this thread in case you wondered what they looked like in the wild:

I haven't hit the strip YET 
but on the street even at 60mph the stock 20s break loose, and this was before the cam we did this week, so figured have to find something better.

I just went with 19/12 rear wheels, and 18/10 fronts...
I'm now running 345/30/19 Toyo R888s in the rear, and Toyo R888r 275/35/18s in the front, the car is a JOY to drive in the canyons, and hooks up Much better then it did on stock tires.
