Wheels for C5?
I'm thinking of new wheels for my C5, for next year. I like to do TT with NASA RM. Any opinions on what is good or bad for the C5?
How wide can I go before causing issues? Front? rear? What about longevity?
I was wondering if 18x11 was too wide for the front? 18x13 for the rear? Any mods that could be done to accomidate wide wheels?
Stock body, no spacers, front brake spindle ducts. On Pfadt coilovers, at their factory ride height.
Thanks

18x13 rears will stick out with fender flairs.
18x12 will be ok with -2.0* camber, but may be even with the fender with -1.0* camber
18x11 up front is not a problem, just dont turn lock to lock
CCW Classic Tracks are great. Strong and light wt

CCW's - Call John for offsets
You can also minitub and tires will not extend past fenderwells.
Inexpensive option - 18 x 10.5's (stock rear ZO6's) on front. Weldcraft widened ZO6 rears to 18 x 12 with minitub on rear.
