Apex ec7's in a 18 x 10.5 et25 actually clear our rear brakes, suspension, and all those goodies. Might fit the fronts, but I still need to check. Great budget option for tires. 5x120 instead of 5x120.5 too. Not sure if it'll scrape under thermal expansion or hard suspension loads yet either. But everything has atleast 1/2" of clearance. You'll also need a 70.3 to 72.6 hub centric ring. I'll do some more testing once those come in. That being said, I would recommend ordering them just yet. 10.5 is a smaller wheel, but possibly they can be expanded.

Ran these on my V and loved them. 18x10" were ~18lbs.

They're the go to wheels for m3 track guys too. Had them on my e92 m3, decided to try them on and they fit great. By far the cheapest choice for z07 guys too. Once my hubcentric rings come in I'll confirm fitment.

Arben, I am a huge fan of Apex wheels and have been after them to produce wheels for Corvettes to no avail. I used to have them on my M3's before and loved them for the cost/weight.

I am still skeptical of the fitment of these on our cars as they are not hubcentric. When it comes to track wheels where these hubs will be under immense load, hub centric rings can be an issue.

Definitely possibly an issue at a road course. I don't believe it'll be an issue at a drag strip though. Seeing as the cheapest 18" rear drag wheels I can find are about 1k a corner, this can be a very budget solution. That being said, hub centric wheels are definitely the ultimate choice when it comes to lateral g's of road courses. It's only 2.3 mm off though, so it's not a massive difference, but probably not worth risking your life over. I'll update as soon as I get my hub centric rings.

You can buy a 4 proper sized Signature Forged monoblock wheels for 2700 right now (extra 300 off flash sale until the end of July). Split the set with another Z06.

Wheels are extremely light weight for 18x12.5 around 19.7-20.7 lbs each. They are fully forged 6061 T6 and hub centric. Why risk for a few hundred bucks? Anti tire slip knurling beads are optional 300.

Understand the 2 forged wheel sellers chiming in, but gotta say the Apex wheels are pretty well built. Did a lot of curb jumping at VIR in my 4,300lb. V (curb weight + fuel + me) and never had an issue. Guessing the 3,500lb. Z would be OK.

While the 2 advertising are certainly not wrong about forged wheels, I've seen tons of Camaros, M3s, etc. run Apex wheels on the track with absolutely no issues at all. It would be nice if they made them in C7 or C7Z sizes though (because while those clear the brakes, the offset is not even remotely correct).

Any new options?
