Default wtb - 18" track wheels for 08 C6

Hi, on a budget so looking for inexpensive 18" rims I can use for HPDE events. I think 18 x10 and 18 x 11 is what was recommended.
The dirtier the better guys, looking for a good deal, thanks!

I have a set of OEM 2007 C6 wheels no tires in the basement great condition 18 front and 19 rear I would let go for $250 plus shipping if you want to stay with the same sizes.

Want them to be 18" rear so I have a better selection of tires, thanks.

Re 11 & 12, didn't think I could go that wide on a non wide body?

They would stick out some, if that's a consideration. But would fit some nice big meats.

I've got a set of CCW 18's in dark silver that are available. They are
11" fronts with 275/35-18 Toyo R888's, and the rears are 12" with 305/35-18 Toyo R888's. They probably have 2-3 HPDE events left on them, depending how you drive. I had to sell my vette, and the wheels/tires are available. I've also got the factory wheels with R888's as well. The factory wheels will need new tires though. I was told the CCW's are about 750/piece, I'm looking for $2k for the CCW's, or $2300 for both sets. I'll get pics.
I know you said inexpensive, but these wheels for this price is a good deal.

That is a good price but I think they are out of my price range.

Do you mind if I ask what size R888's you were running on the factory 18/19 rims? Also, the CCW's fit without a problem on a non wide body car?

Thanks,
