Props to you for looking outside the box and not running the same ol same ol . They look good on the car . I think your feelings would been a been a little different on the tires if they were Pilot sport 2's. They are quite a bit more costly than the Pilot Sports you got though.

thanks LT4, and im not saying i don't like vette wheels or OEM ones, like the chrome ten spokes it came with(sold those rimes).

I was going with a set of OEM C5 Z06 wheels that are brand new and still in my shop. lol i boughjt them and was about to put the tires on and just thought about how many ppl have vette wheels already. did a search and
they are everywhere, Z06, ZR1, DD staggerd...etc.
you name it. and thats the only reason i didn't go with them.

and like i sai i think the vette wheels on our cars looks great!
but its been done is all.

thanks, i have a plan for the deep fronts.
wasn't sure if the staggerd one that are 18X8.5 would
clear the brake kit i'm putting on, so i got these all same size to be safe
cuase i am gonna buy 2 more either way so i can mount
some Nitto NT05r tires out back for Friday nights.

so if i don't like it or have a problem i'll get the other rims.
just didn't wanna buy stuff before i knew if it fit or not.
when it's all mocked up i'll know what to do.

but yea a staggerd set would look good if not better too.

They look like a modernized and less sissy looking version of ZR1s, I think they look excellent. Helluva lot better than ZR1s or lame *** c5z wheels. Very clean, simple, and different.

Two thumbs up here.

Do they rub at all? They tuck in nicely?

I've been looking at some XXR wheels but have been slightly hesistant since not many people have them, and can speak about their fitment.
