i'm wider (that's what she said) and tuck all 4 tires. if they got your offset requirements down pact, you'll be fine.

Let me know if you want to sell one of your stock rims. I may be in the market for one. I'm also in the market for used Goodyear 245/45 GS-2 (w/about 50% tread left) if you have one of those available. Hit a curb. BTW, nice CCW's!

I was going to go with those, but I decided on the 6 spoke SP-600.
Both the 505A & SP-600 are great.
The SP 600's was originally & specifically designed for the V-1.
Oh, and don't worry about the offset being down pact. CCW was instrumental in the development of the wheels, for the V, for GM, prior to the V's release.
And I might add, is still working with GM in wheel development.

The SP-600's were my favorite. After seeing a lot of V's with those wheels, i have begun to like the 505A's a little more being more rare...

This is true . . . But, with 6 lugs, the spacing is symetrical with 6 spokes.
I like those 505A's, cause they have a Z06 look, but 6 lugs and 5 spokes . . . hmmmm. So, I did a little survey with my friends, including the girls, and they 100% voted for the SP-600's.

And that's the way it is.

Lol! I like the 600's. I have just always been a 5 spoke fan. I dont know why, just looks a little nicer to me. And i agree on the 505A's. I like how they resemble the z06's...

I don't know man. The sp-600's and 505a's look sick on the V's and vettes. I have an appreciation for all forged wheels but I think ccw's on a GM is almost a must when going forged.

I haven't looked at all the options though. Iforged, Klass, 360 forged, ccw, intro, bonspeed, billet specialities, etc all make very nice wheels!
