Default 5 Lug drag tire wheels??? What are you using?

I'm looking at getting a some wheels that I can put some ET Streets on for when I go to the track but without spending stupid money on a some welds.

I can't see spending $800-$1000 for two wheels that are going to sit in the garage 99% of the time.

I'm running a corvette 5x120.6/4.75" bolt pattern and I'm looking for a 17x10-10.5 wheel or a 17x9.5 if I have to.

I thought about some C4 Corvette ZR1 Wheels but they are 17x11 which will be iffy as for fitting on the car.

Right now I'm running a 19x10.5 +55 with a 295/30ZR19 on the street

Also what are you thoughts on a 18" ET streets?

there's guys running welds and racestars. they also just released a forgestar F14 drag wheel (17x10). the racestars and F14s are within your budget for sure as they're very wel priced. i have lines on both.

Yeah, I'm think about going 18's but I would like to run a set of 17's just for the extra sidewall.

Which C6Z wheels are you talking about?

I've only ever seen C5 Z06 wheels in 18x10.5"

the new forgestar F14 drag are due to land at the forgestar facility later this month.

the setup should be 17x10 +44mm from everything i've gathered. i've got a couple sets on order already and i should be able to make a few more sales from them. the demand for them are pretty high.

Me too, but I have about 4 sets of wheels and I need to get rid of some of this nonsense. I ran across a set of these and had to get them since they were 10.5"......

OE wheel replicas. 2005-2013 C6 Z06
Stock f/r were 18x8.5 and 19x.10.

A guy ordered a set of 18x8.5 and 18x10.5.

I bought them.

I am selling the 4 - 18x8.5s. They are not perfect, but they would work.



On the front, I am running GTO 17x4" spare wheels and radials.
