My new wheels
Hey guys
Finally got my 18" C6 ZO6 wheels on, wrapped em in Toyo T1R's. Great fit and I think they look pretty good. Pic quality is ok, took them with the phone.
On a side note, was wondering if anyone out there has had any probs with vibration with there wheel adapters. Car rides smooth as glass till 60 mph+, then it vibrates pretty hard. Just had em balanced yesterday, but thanks to town fair I had to put em on myself. They wouldn't put on the adapters. I was gonna get em balanced again, but I have to bring them down off the car to be balanced. Real pain in the ***.

Re: Some more pics
Hey TMZ, I am looking to get the same rims for my black vert come next spring. Just curious as to some of the specs on them. What width are they, and what size tires are you running? Same for the front and the back? Also, what is the offset on the wheels? Ones I am looking at are 18x9.5 front and rear w/ a 40mm offset. I know I am going to need spacers, but I also plan on doing a corvette brake upgrade for the front so I havn't quite narrowed down which spacers I will need yet. Any info back would be great, I would especially like to see a photo from the rear to see how the car sits from the back and how much the wheels stick out, if any.
These are the first rims I have really seen that I would give up my stock irocs for, gonna go with the hypersilver finish

Re: Some more pics
These wheels are made by Replica. They are 18 x 8.5. I am not sure about the offset, but they are the same as a 4th gen. I run 2" wheel spacers all the way around. The tires are 265-35R18. They are just about the same width as the stock tires. I wanted to get the 18 x 9.5 wheels, but all they had at the time was 18 x 8.5 or 18 x 10.5. Other brands now make these wheels and you can find the 9.5 width pretty easily.
