Default CCW Knock offs

Hey guys I stumbled across these and thought I might let yall know. The set i found was staggered 18x8.5/9.5. Offsets where 35 on the front and 40 on the rear, I was thinking doing four 9.5s would probably work.
They were called STR wheels, I just searched 5x12o on ebay to find them

Im broke so I like them. Actually going to seriously consider them when Im ready to buy wheels. Wish they came in at least 10 inches wide though but oh well.

I just checked Redline's website and found quite a few good looking wheels really cheap but I couldn't find these

EDIT: Just found these on ebay. They're called Redline RD144 but they're not on Redlinewheel.com

I couldnt find them on redline's website or on 2kracing. I sent the sell an email to see if a set of 4 rears could be purchased and asked him the brand and model of the wheels. Will report back with results.

there is no ccw replica,nothing will hold a candle to a ccw in person,now xlassics you can get for a decent price,drag packs are pretty cheap and if you go with the race version you should be able to get them used for aroubd the 2200 dollar mark,you might not be saving that much buying knock offs,especially if your buying tires and all that,

I can get used Pirelli P-Zeros ($500 tire) for 50-70 bucks a piece with 85% or more in the sizes needed for these wheels at a local used tire place. Can easily be done for under 1000 bucks.

Still waiting to see if we can get 9.5s all around.

I was thinking about getting these wheels too! I think they would look pretty good on a camaro. 9.5's all around would be nice. Only wish i could find the size of the lip on these wheels. Not to mention there alot cheaper than the originals. Might be my blackfriday purchase

yeah you could get them staggered if u want, but i wanted 9.5 all around because of the 2.5" lip they have. But here ya go 285/40/18 out back and 265/35/18 in front $480 for rims plus $140 for tires =620 not bad.

That looks good! I like it, but something about the front doesn't sit right. Are you dropped? I think that's it, the gap in the front looks alot bigger than the back.

I like them. Not 100 percent sold but will definitely consider when its time for new wheels. I agree that the front of the car looks like it's sitting too high compared to the back.
