t/aws666- how much of a lip are on the wheels. they look alot better than the regular c5 wheels. it might be the angle but it looks like there is only like a 1/2 inch lip on them.

thanks for the compliments. i agree it would look way better with 18's b/c it would have the wider lip in the rear.


Its dark out now but i can shoot some better pics tomorrow during the day and post them up...as long as its not raining again (after i just washed it today)

Those 17s all the way around dont look agressive at all.

I went 18s in the rear and 17s in the front.

I MIGHT have to sell them now tho. Cause I just found out I need another $1000 for closing on my house.

Anyone who's interested in the wheels PM me.

Thats the only set up that would look halfway good IMO. but when I called. they arent making the y2ks in 18s all the way around. Only the c6 z06s IIRC.

the spokes are 1 12/16 inches at the bottom and get to 2 inches closer to the center of the wheel. You also have to remember my car in not lowered at all. My car has always sat really high for some reason, higher than most stock f-bodies i have seen. I'm really not sure why though

Ima call em and order the 18x10.5 on all 4's, they look just like the CCW's, but the 17's are just to small with no lip.

I asked the rep. @ OE I talked to about this as well, his response was "How are you going to make them fit up front?" I told him I thought I'd seen some folks running the stock zo6 10.5s up front on our cars, but he said this offset may make that look funny. The offset is 56mm, same as the fronts. The stock zo6 rear offset is 58mm I believe...I think it can be done.

I like the 17s front and 18x10.5s rear. I like 18's on front to but they have to be skinnier.It gives it a meaner look. Makes them look even wider on rear too

Here is 17's 18s on my car. It didnt look bad. So shouldnt be a deal breaker.
