Thanks jhopper408!!!

So 1stratecorvette parts got a hold of forgestar and the rims are done! I'll be paying the balance off today and hopefully they will be shipped out Mon. So I've been told my back rims will be the first on a c5 in the country. F14 18x9 semi concave in the front and 18x12 super deep concaves in the rear.

Hey man, those look awesome! Edge of the seat to see them mounted!

Can you please confirm the exact offsets for the rears? I just put L5 flares on my rear...and may just order two new F14 super concave rears like these to fill in the fenders.

Why only 12"? Was that the widest Forgestar makes? Are you going to run any sort of spacer or adapter on the rear?

Thanks...and congrats again.

ETA: What brand/size tires are you running on the rear? I also wonder if those super deep concave rears would clear C6Z big brakes...

I don't plan to run spacers but I won't know for sure until I mount one up.
I'll pm you with the offset and I plan on running 345/35/18 mickeys so that should bring them right to the fender. Not sure on the brakes man but they did ask me if I had stock brakes which I do. I would call them and see.

Thanks Maxx you know it never last long. I'm just happy to be that guy who had the super deeps on a c5 first lol. Now I really need to get my rear mickeys so I can get these on the car and get some good pics for you guys!

Trroy has to be a salesman for Forgestar. Look how meticulous he was displaying the wheels with the new tires. Then having the dog pose with them just put it over the top. These will fly off the shelves now. Look awesome. Love that deep concave. Man wide fender fever is sweeping the C5 nation! I have some concave 20x12 Sport Muscle GS wheels going on mine when it gets back from being painted. I will have to run a 3/4" spacer to bring them oit where they need to be.

Forgestar should pay me lol the boxer will sell their rims. Post some pics of your ride when you get the fenders and rims on. I honestly didn't expect the back rim to be as deep as it is but I'm happy about it.

So mounted one of the back rims on today. Looks like they might be right at the fender or just a little pass but nothing crazy. I'll be ordering my mickeys tomorrow so shouldn't be much longer before I'm putting them
on the car.
