just called oewheels and the only thing they offer for 18'sall around is the c6 zo6 deep dish 
new wheels and drop =))
I think you got a lazy salesman.
OP - the wheels look really damn good.. much better than I would have thought when someone says "anthracite wheels on a green car" - you really pulled it off nicely.

On the fence about the rear CETA?
Since I did mine, everytime I see it unpainted it just looks like it is meant to be done / almost unfinished. I would say it even looks better in person than pictures perhaps.
My car is a lighter color and befor it was done people sometimes thought the area around the tips looked like it had carbon build-up from the shadowing and now I get compliments on the clean and finished look of it painted (Charcoal semi gloss).
As a side note, If your fenders aren't rolled make sure the tires clear, one good bump and you can put a crease in your quarter. Don't ask me how I know!

Once your lowered an adjustable panhard rod is in order if you don't already have one. It will enable you to center the rear end again (when you lower the rear end shifts to one side) eliminating the BFH to the passenger side!
Some people measure from the tires to the body however I was told by Sam Strano to drive in a straight line through a puddle of water and check the wet tire marks to see if the rear tires follow the fronts perfectly (that's what I did to mine). Hope it helps!

lol yea I just read about that today, sounds like to me it shifted bout 1/4 inch towards the drivers side. I will def use that puddle test. I can even tell just by looking at the rear that the tire sticks out more on one side than the other, thought for a moment I was seeing things til I read about this. Thing that sucks is I just replaced the factory panhard with an aftermarket one last month and now I gotta get a new adj one, wish I would read this beforehand
oh man, those look sweet!!! my old 95 was the same color, then seeing this makes me regret getting rid of it!!! very nice car man.
also---seeing a good looking LT1 makes me want to swap the front end on my car, kinda be a sleeper.........
