I temporarily gave up on this hope. But if they do make them in the size, color and offset I want, I will be one of the first ones with them!

Oh man, I hope they do. I love those wheels and want to upgrade from my current C6 Z06 to these Z06 spyder wheels. Let us know! I need tires soon and would prefer to just replace the wheels at the same time (if I can afford it). I need at least a 10.5 in the rear. That was the only thing preventing me from getting them sooner. They only came in a 9.5. I was actually looking into widening the 9.5 rims at weldcraft to meet my needs.

Like Hugger Z said... they only come in 9.5's at the moment, but you dont have to wait for OE to make them....

Dang, I was hoping the Spyder and ZR1's would come out around June or so, at least that's what I initially thought the eta was for them. Maybe I mis-read... I'd love to be able to get the ZR1's in 18 X 10.5"!

Still haven't seen the wider size on their site. We can keep hoping. I would order them in a heartbeat if I could replace my current 18x9.5 fronts & 18x10.5 rears. Hell 18x11 would work in the back too.

thats great and all but 3rd Gens look better with 17's. I want OE wheels to make them in 18x10.5. since we can already get the stockers in 18x9.5. and i want them for 4th gens

Not a fan of these at all. If they were a DD and there was more design they might be ok. Too much gap between each design = cheap look. OE better take theirs to the next level!

I’ve wanted the 18X10.5 Spyders for a long time now. Can you add an inch to the width of the wheel and is it safe? I heard it cost around $100 for each rim. I don’t want to go with the 19x10 because I think it will be hard to find the BFG KDW new tread design tires to go with the wheels.
