Didn't want to wait for the C10?

Those look great on your car.

I really didn't want to wait at all. They were actually on order for 48 Hours in Feburary but the offsets were wrong. I want to keep the stock wheels pristene.

I think we lowered the car about 2 inches.

That's what I ordered. They are cool. How long you have to wait from order to delivery?

I'm not sure of the offsets. They are 18x9 in front and 18x12 rears. I am using Sport Cups. The fronts are 235x40 and the rears 315x30.

It really doesn't take long for delivery but there was alot of back and forth getting the offsets right. John at CCW now has all the offsets correct. Don't let anyone talk you into taking off the spacer. It will make life a pain.

I took off the spacer. Why is it a pain?

Mitch, hom much.

Why is it a pain to take off the spacer. I presume that they can make a set for the RS rears just as easy .

I thought that you were going to try to go bigger on the front ?

Default CCW Wheels

Mitch,

Could you please list phone # for CCW and the style of wheels. Looks great. I was looking for someone to take the plunge and find an 18 inch option. Could you also list the offsets.
Thanks

Did you have to shorted the lug bolts?

The other thing for me was not wanting to switch the spacer back in if I wanted to run the stock wheels.

yes, I use the same lugs front and rear. I don't use the stock wheels anymore so all of my wheels have custom offsets to eliminate the spacers. The spacers went on the shelf.

Erik, I tried to get 265's on the front but they won't fit. There isn't alot of room up there. I may have to switch to Hoosiers. Especially if I want to keep up with you!!

About the lugs, I thought I would have to cut them a little but I guess I was wrong.
