Does anybody know if there are any companies out there that make a Y2K C5 wheel in and 18x9 or 18x8 setup for a 99 T/A? I can find 18x9.5 and up but didn't want to modify the wheel well due to tire rubbing. Are there any suggestions on what I can due besides dropping down to a 17 inch rim. I wanted a large open wheel to show off the rotor behind it.

Thank you for your help.

I have been looking and seem only to find the 18x9.5 from lgmotorsports, oe creations, ebay, cruisinchrome, and vette wheels. Are there any other manufactorers out there that I am forgetting?

You should be able to run a 18x9.5 w/o problems? Are you lowered quite a bit or something? If so you could run a shorter or narrower tire on that rim. There are a few people (road racers) running 17x11 with 315 35 17 all the way around.

It's all about to offsets. An 18" x 9.5" wheel fits great, you just need to shop for the right offset. Anything betwen 54mm and 38mm works without mods.

I just purchased the T/A about two months ago and it is bone stock. I have been asking around and it seems that there are going to be rub issues with that size wheel going up from the stock 16x8. I really don't want to have to roll the wheel wells out of it or have problems with the wheels scraping on something in the wheel well. When I contact the places that manufactor these rims they all seem to give the same answer. The 18x9.5 will rub so go with the 17x9's.
