Ur front 18x9.5s are what +56mm? I was browsing the sticky last night on the CTS-V install and it said if you run a rim with an offset less than +41mm it will work without spacers. The spyders you can get a 18x9.5 in +40mm. Sorry for all the questions sir but you made my dreams come true on ur car.

^My plan was to use Z06 rotors with the CTS-V calipers. I would be running a 275 up front on the 18x9.5. Im gonna investigate some more before pulling the trigger on some rims. I didnt realize the Z06 calipers would be different from the CTS-V ones. In the sticky the guys using the CTS-V calipers bolt them right on with no cutting from what I understand. The problem is finding some wheels that they fit behind.

The CTS-V calipers are only 4 piston, while the Z06 are 6 piston. I dont think they stick out any further though, so a rim/offset that will clear the V calipers should clear the Z06 as well, I would imagine.

My math shows a 0.3937008" difference in the stock wheel (+50mm) and the (+40mm) option. I'm in the middle of deciding which route to go.
Zep,
How big is ur spacer outback? How big is your spacer on the front? Do you have any RUB issues with the 295 out front? I know NITTO's run a lil narrow from the size on their sidewall, as my 275's I just put on my TBSS werent alot diff from the stock 255's I took off
