I'm also looking at those rims but was wondering with that offset and the spacers needed to mount them on our cars would they stick out past the fender lip a little, that's only thing stopping me.

Still have mine sitting in the boxes and waiting for the car to come back from geting painted,but until then this is what i have.
18X9.5 all around with 2" spacers all around.

I decided I wanted to try out the new Hankook Ventus V12's, the price was right too... 235\40\18 in the front and 285/35/19 in the back... Should be mounted by next week!!!

EDIT: So the fronts are on back order til god knows when... Thankfully I have a set of kuhmos I can toss on there so I can get these bad boys mounted!

19x10 in the rear

Totally jealous of you C-Titan lol.. I have been eyeing those rims the day they came out and have yet to purchase my set.Did you buy yours from the vendor on ebay?

What spacers are you going to use? Im interested to hear if you run into issues with mounting them or tire rubbing because Im lowered 2 inches and I like having good size tire on a rim and be able to turn in a decent radius.

I think those are the perfect c6 rims that arent soo common.

IROC-You

Nice, exactly the ones i was looking for.

They come in 2 versions as far as backspacing is concerned, whats the backspacing on yours? I want as little backspacing as possible to get a deeper dish.

I also want my tires to extend about an inch past the fenders, im not a huge fan of the "tucked" look and im more a fan of the widebody/widetrack look.

I cant wait to see yours mounted.

C-Titan

8" of back-spacing

I didn't think they had 2 different versions...

Had my spacers machined today, should be mounted by dinner time...

C-Titan

iTrader: (2)

Got emm mounted to day, god do they look sick... Having some issues though...

#1: The passenger side sticks out at least a half an inch further then the driver side...

#2: Worst rub I have ever heard!! It doesnt matter what you're doing; They just rub... I tried rolling the fenders with no luck, thinking of picking up some weight jacks... Any other suggestions??????

are you lowered? if so you need an adjustable panhard bar to re-center the rear end

C-Titan

iTrader: (2)

Yessir, 1 1/2... It was never noticable with my Ace's, either way, I ordered an Adj. PHB from Jegs and pondering some weight jacks... I came up with a temporary solution by using a set of rear springs off my CLS... Suprisingly they seated properly and the ride is great... Just have about 4 inches of fender gap in the rear, looks like im ready to launch HARD - haha... It'll be back to flush by next week...

IROC-You

did you take any pics with the stock springs?

post em!

C-Titan

iTrader: (2)

Here's a few pics with the CLS rear springs, pics with the Eibachs are gonna take a while to photo-shop because they were taken at night and came out like crap... After my PHB comes in I think I may just keep the CLS springs and cut a coil to get my drop back... They ride amazingly well and feel ten times smoother (and oddly stiffer) then the Eibachs...

Pardon the filth:







I'm not a fan of how far the rear wheels stick out, bringing them in a half an inch should do the trick...

92RS(real slow)

looks good how deep is the dish on the rears? the don't look as deep as I thought they were gonna be? that sucks all the problems you had, but either way looks killer...need more pics though lol. I think when I get mine Im gonna get all 18x9.5 all the way round or 17 instead of having them staggered.

C-Titan

iTrader: (2)

I agree, I wish they did have the option for a wider lip... Dont get me wrong though, i'm absolutely in LOVE with these wheels... They look amazing in person and completely change the whole persona of the car... I wouldve had some better pics but my cam died after taking these few... When I do a re-shoot, i'll take some measurements of the front and rear lips for ya...

86White_T/A305

What spacers did you use C-Titan on the car? I want to get the same wheels and stay with 18x8.5 all around.My car is lowerd 2 inches with sportlines and Im hoping not to have much rubbing issues or the rears sticking out so far.Any advice?

camaropep

love my vette wheels but not a big fan of the spacers. I am planning a 4th gen rear end to eliminate the rear spacers, but has anyone found any good ways to eliminate the front (for example, custom spindles or something). I know it would prob be cheaper to buy new wheels. Just curious. any thoughts?

IROC-You

Looks very nice, although the rear doesnt have as much lip as I was expecting from other pictures ive seen of these wheels. They still look good anyways.

It does look like it will actually tuck up nicely into the fenders with a .5" less spacer and some trimming or rolling of the fender.

How is the clearance on the backside of the wheel? Will bringing them in .5" cause any problems?

C-Titan

iTrader: (2)

Currently i'm running 1.75" up front and 3" in the rear. I'm swapping out the rears for some 2.5's to get a lil tuckage back... I'm not sure if they offer a set in the size you're looking for but if they do, with the proper spacers, you wont have any rubbing issues what so ever... Ran the same set-up before I put these on with no issues...

I'll take better pics when I get the chance, been so busy at work - barely have any free time... These definitely don't do them justice, the car looked good before but now it just looks Mean...

There is about 3\4's of an inch between the backside of the wheel and the inner fender plate... Even though i'm going to bring it in another .5", I dont think i'll have to do any cutting on the inner wells... I'm going to see where that sits and go from there with the rest; such as - how much drop and whether or not i'm going to have to do any cutting or rolling of the fender lips...

Ryder85

i have 18X9.5 corvette z06 wheels for my 85. now if i get the 2in spacers is there going to be any inner fender work needed or not? and anyone who has vette wheels already what is the offset on them?

Ryder85

looks like you have the same size vette wheels i just bought for my 85. now w those 2in spacers did you have any problems on the inner fender wells w any rubbing? that is my main concern. do you happen to know the offset on those wheels?

Very nice, the black wheels go great with that car imo. Not to get off topic but is that a 4'' goodmark steel cowl hood?

Orr89RocZ

iTrader: (20)

Anyone like these rims? deep dish matte black C5's with rivets? Was thinking of converting to these instead of my current gray C6's

Also have them in black without rivets




Or i'll try to find a pair of 18x10.5 C6 wheels and paint to match the gray front and run my drag radial like i wanted

nhedrick007

Not to get off topic, but Hoosier makes a 19" drag radial. a little salty, but holds like stink on ****. I'll be investing in some VERY soon.

LBC_camaro91

Thanks man.

And yes your right on the money.

Hey Guys,

I have a 92 RS. Found a set of ZR1's that came off a 01 Camaro SS.

315/35 17 drag radials on the back and

255/40 17 Kuhmo's on the front. These should work with 2" adapters all the way around correct?

I appreciate it.

Orr89RocZ

iTrader: (20)

yep zr1s work

cronny1

iTrader: (1)

So, I won't have any problems with the 315's in the rear? Also, 2" spacers are ok on all 4?

Someone dropped off a pretty box at my door today and happened to have the Vette wheel my Camaro is missing!





No more running 3 with a Firehawk replacement! (Btw thats summer 09 picture, car is in peices at the moment lol)

nhedrick007

Carlos,

Would you call your car a Camaro, Corvette, or Firebird?

Cormarobird???

Carlos773

iTrader: (3)

Rustcormaro. Putting the firebird in there wouldn't make sense.

redlinemuscle

I love this setup - fits the car perfectly....can you please tell us exactly what you used for adapter sizes front and rear? That would make it much easier, thanks.

iTrader: (12)

I would go with the deep dish black one with out the rivets. i think they look better. but then agian go might wana go with some other wheels that give you car abit more awsomeness, but stay with a dark color wheel

dealbatony

MAN this has to be about the toughest looking Camaro Ive ever seen..and its twin turbo'd..Amazing!

toolegit86

need a better pic and paint 18/10 z06's with 2.25 spacers front and 2.5 rear

dealbatony

okay so with c6 wheels, run 2' spacers up front and 2.25' spacers in the rear?
is there anyother mods im gonna have to due to the rear..
i keep reading that if you do 2.25 you have to roll the fender lips??
what if i run 2.5' in the rear any mods then?
