7 sets of CCW's for C5 , 2 Sets of Forgeline ZX3r's for C5, 2 sets of CCW's for C3 and 1 set of CCW's for C4......And various other Speedlines .
My wife ought to have me committed............
I may have to liquidate some of my C5 stuff to clear the new big brake set-up on the roadrace car.....
Advise for Jongbloed.....manufacture wheels that clear all of the big brakes.

I do that now. I have a corvette center that has 2.1 inches of brake clearance. Is there a reason everyone seems to use CCW? Price?
Thanks

YES, Yes, Yes, and durability and customer service. John and Chip are first rate.
Plus take a look at the BBS or Fiksi prices. Great wheels but....
LG has some Forgline race wheels that may be a good idea

Customer service. Customer service. And customer service.
I'm not sure 2.1" of clearance would fit my Wilwood SL6Rs... note that's the full width caliper and not the one that LGM packages which is the SL6. My CCW C140s have tonnes of room, though!

Stock C5Z06 rear wheels on all four corners.
Light, Inexpensive ($200), and wide enough to fit decent brakes.
