Default Crazy rim idea, 10.5" wide all around

Is this a really BAD idea with the rubbing issues, has anyone attempted? Maybe then wrap 285 in the front and 295 in the rear on 18" x 10.5" all around. Just a thought wanted some input. Thanks!

plenty of us have... including me. Not an issue. 50 to 56 offset up front and rear and a 275 or 285 tire, 295-35 out back may need a lil fender roll no prob. Mine was fine with a Pro Kit drop

I want Z06's I figured I might just get two OEM sets and then sell off the 17" x 9.5" as a 17" package, I'm sure there is someone out there that is interested in that kind of deal.

I just saw your photo album, NICE - send 'em. what kind of tire are you using on those? Is there a style with more of the gunmetal look to them? I am going to change my color out from red and want the stealth look.
