Finnally got my DD C5's on today.
Well ordered these for my own Xmas present( haha my 5th set of wheels! Thanks OE!) These are by far my favorite now. Also new pics of my new Flat black Berger panel, my Silver CAMARO inserts were supposed to be here by now but hopefully they will show up tommorow.
18X10.5 F&R Deep Dish C5 Black w/ Machined lip
Front Hankook V12 Ventus 295/30/18
Rear Hankook RS2 315/30/18
Now to the mass quantity of people that are going to ask what spacers i used.
Fronts-i used 3/16" spacers just because it was so close to the spindle it made me not comfortable so i just ran them, i had them sitting around so why not.
Rears-i could of actually ran no spacers in the back if i would of lowered the car past the bumpstops and then tightened them down but i didnt want to even take the chance of them hitting so i just threw some 5/16" spacers on there.
Both front and rear wheels are exactly even with the fenders and absolutely nothing rub's, Now i used to have ZR1's and 315's so my bumpstop are already shaved a bit and definately some BFH mod was going on for those.
I also installed some arp studs and used extended shank lugnuts.
Ill get some better pictures when the weather gets better here(snow) but these are from my iphone.

Nice! Those look awesome.
I'm waiting for the 18x9.5's come out for the front.
What exact spacers did you use and where did you get them as well as the wheel studs? I wanna make sure I have to right stuff for when I get mine.

Thanks,
The rear 5/16 spacers are from ezAccessory.com and they are 5X100-120mm Spacer 5/16" thick(pair) they are PN 605 and were $10.99.
The front ones i used are the exact same brand but i got them from my work inventory at Lexus so i dont know the exact PN. but they are 3/16" but for the other guy that is buying the 18X9.5 you are not going to need front spacers so dont worry about it.
