Check out my new 2005 Corvette C6 wheels & tires.....pics

[CAMSTY]

Just picked them up today at UPS.

Tony helped me do the swap at his place after work. :tup:

Yes, I know I still need to get rid of the 4x4 look, my belltech springs are in Nolans garage

The wheels are 2005 C6 chome 18X9.5's with Nexen N3000 265/35ZR18 in all 4 corners.

I will get some better quality pics tomorrow after I wash the filthy pig.

Edit......Well I washed it today and snaped a few more pics before the sun went down.
And I removed the other pics.....I hated them, the truck had a couple weeks worth of dust on it and the color looked like ass.

And here the going fast look while parked

Those look tight man, did you weigh them? Just wondering how much lighter or heavier they are than stock. Looks beautiful.

Oh yeah, can post a pic from the front and back? I'm thinking about upgrading to 265/35/18 tire size on my 18x8.5 rims and want to get an idea of how wide those look.

Thanks

We'll get that sorted out soon. I need to do mine too, along with rear disks, caltracs, etc.

The wheels look even better in person. Good choice Cam.

Now update that sig pic :rotf:

are those original vette wheels and offsets/sizes?
i can't tell, but did they require spacers?

Yes, I know. Like I said the lowering springs are in Nolan's garage waiting to be installed.

Those look tight man, did you weigh them? Just wondering how much lighter or heavier they are than stock. Looks beautiful.

No, I forgot to weigh them, but UPS had a weight of 51lbs per box (per wheel & tire)

I'll probably post a pic from the rear later today.

It's because of the adapter

Compared to what? 315's? There only 1cm smaller than 275's.

I wanted a more streetable tire that didn't pull me all over the road, as much anyways.

skata are those original vette wheels and offsets/sizes?

No, they are replicas from O.E Concepts.
