Was talking with a local club member with the same setup and he said his rears rubbed a bit, but nothing a BFH can't fix.

That's the exact size i got from Tom Z. Black Z06 non-Motorsports. Running a 295 BFG dr in the back. Put them on friday and they fit perfect w/ no rubbing. You might want to make sure they have the 18x10.5's in stock first. I know at one point they had sold them out.

Ditto.

BFH is a piece of cake.

I even have the almighty GS-D3's and the rubbing wasnt too bad to begin with.

I ordered then on Feb 8. Got them one week later. They sold out of the 18x10.5's by the time you ordered (link reply #18).

Yeah I knew that they had sold out before I ordered, but when I saw that you said you had yours put on last friday that gave me a little hope that maybe they had finally come off backorder and maybe were on their way to me....but I guess not

It will be worth the wait. They look good and fit perfect. And no more having to polish wheels

My car is lowered with the pro-kit. I have C5 ZO6 with 295/35/18 BFG KDW 2's and have no rubbing issues at all. My rear wheel offsets are 53mm, not sure what offset Tom Z sells, I bought mine from somehwhere else. I think most are between 53-58mm.

They are a very nice looking wheel, You are going to love them when you put them on
