That's awesome. Proper light weight wheels and fat tires is always the way to go. So tired of seeing 21's on Vettes. They look ridiculous.

anything larger than 20 doesn't look good.

I assume they do. As CCW are well known for their "extended back bell and narrow drop center fit large diameter performance brakes"

You may want to contact them to confirm.
If you were wondering my breaks are not Ceramic

Much more stagger than I would expect. Any reason you went with a narrow front?

It's just .5 an inch narrower than stock size, so I wouldn't call it narrow.

to properly align the offset I was recommended going those sizes

Gotcha. Well you are 1" wider in the rear so a total of 1.5" more stagger which is significant. Wheels look great but you're probably best running a 275 tire on the front and 345 in the rear. Might be fine though due to the rear being a bit looser anyway. I'm surprised an 11" front was not recommended.

Looks great, CCW Builds some very nice wheels. Is your Z Shark Gray? I have a SG and was thinking about going with a Bronze burst.
