Filling the fender is nice but being able to turn without tearing s*** up seems like it would be more important, herrafrush just isn't my thing.

18x9 & 18x10 are a nice setup with Eibach's or coilovers. Saleen 03 would look great.

I've got H-Techs going on the car, just barely a drop, enough to even the fender gaps but not enough to make it undriveable on Houston roads.

Off topic but where did you get this car, cause I purchased what I believe is the same exact car a few months back and did an rb25det swap to it. It was sitting on tsw zolders obviously not as nice as your equips I'm working towards work vs-xx/rezax or maybe any variant of ssr/bbs/vmr I'm located in cali. Image

5x120 for the vette if anyone was trying to look it up. woops!


But If i came across c6 vette wheels at a good price, i think id just use the front wheels on all corners with 5x120 to 5x114 adapters.

But if I were really ballzy and wanted wide a** tires in the back, i would instead get these wheels:

18x10 front 18x12 rear work equip 05's :dblthumb:

And roll/pull the fenders out like you have never seen. It would be worth it. And would be full of awesome. Nolimit, please consider this.
